Everton have received a fitness boost ahead of their Premier League trip to face league leaders Arsenal on Saturday, March 15, 2026. Winger Dwight McNeil is available for selection after recovering from an ankle injury that caused him to miss the previous match.
Defender Jarrad Branthwaite, however, remains a major doubt for the fixture at the Emirates Stadium. The centre-back is still undergoing assessment for a groin injury and a late decision will be made on his availability.
The team news was confirmed by manager Sean Dyche in his pre-match press conference. Everton, fighting to avoid relegation, face a significant challenge against an Arsenal side currently top of the table.
The match is scheduled for a 3:00 PM GMT kick-off. Everton's lineup decisions will be crucial as they seek a positive result against the title contenders.
