Things are rolling for Everton FC. In three competitive games so far, the team has two wins and a draw. In the Premier League, they have four points from two tough games in which they drew with Tottenham and nabbed a comeback win on the road at West Bromwich Albion. Stoke City are on Merseyside today.
It looks like the Toffees will have a nearly full-strength squad; apart from Seamus Coleman. On the other hand, the Potters will surely miss Glen Johnson and Jack Butland and may still be without Xherdan Shaqiri. Stoke is coming off a 4-1 loss to Manchester City last weekend after drawing with Middlesbrough to begin the season.
The two teams each won on the road in this clash last year. First, Stoke won a slugfest 4-3 at Goodison Park that included a wonder goal from Shaqiri and a late penalty surrendered by John Stones. Later in the season, the Blues crushed their hosts 3-0 with goals from Romelu Lukaku, Coleman and Aaron Lennon.
