Everton will face Tottenham Hotspur in their final match in the Premier League this season
Both Everton and Tottenham Hotspur will have players on the sidelines when they meet in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon. The Blues go into the game looking to get an important three points in their final match of the campaign.
Everton are currently in 12th place in the Premier League table and three points would go a long way to helping secure a top-half finish this season.
David Moyes will be without at least two important players due to injury with Jack Grealish and Jarrad Branthwaite ruled out, while Idrissa Gueye could potentially feature.
On Gueye, Moyes said: "[He] has been back on the grass. I'd say there's probably a 50-50 chance he could be involved.
"We'll know a bit more once we've trained and seen him over the next couple of days. He's not trained with the team, at the moment, so that's where we're at."
Having been sidelined for the past few weeks, and with his return to full team training still uncertain, it remains uncertain if the Senegal international will be available for the fixture.
As for Tottenham, they have received a triple injury boost ahead of clash with Everton.
The only way Spurs could find themselves relegated to the Championship is if they lose while West Ham beat Leeds United, but Roberto De Zerbi will have several key players at his disposal as they look to avoid that nightmare outcome.
Dominic Solanke has been absent for their past three fixtures but is set to return to the squad, while James Maddison is also in contention for a place as his playing time is carefully managed following a serious knee injury.

Addressing the pair, De Zerbi said: "Solanke is available. We have to decide if he starts in the first 11, or not, and Maddison is available. It is always tough to decide before the game how many minutes he can play.
"Of course, he is a different player, a top player for us. But we have to analyse the physical condition, the Italian weather and a lot of things. But both are available."
Djed Spence is also expected to be fit despite sustaining a broken jaw in the defeat to Chelsea earlier this week.
Tottenham do, however, remain without several key players for match, most notably captain Cristian Romero, who picked up his injury in De Zerbi's first match in charge.
Ben Davies is also anticipated to be absent, though De Zerbi confirmed he will remain involved throughout the team's preparations for the match.
Dejan Kulusevski, Wilson Odobert, Mohammed Kudus and Xavi Simons are all nursing long-term injuries, with the latter having ruptured his ACL during the victory over Wolves earlier this month.
Despite several key players remaining on the treatment table, De Zerbi faces some difficult choices regarding how much game time to hand Solanke and Maddison as they work their way back to full fitness.
