Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin is the form of his life.

PRT: What do you make of the Everton displays so far?

"Marc: Everton look like a real force this season and their signings have made them look much more solid – especially in midfield with the creativity of James and the solidity from Allan and Doucoure. It’s no surprise to see them at the top of the table at the moment."

PRT: Can Vestergaard and Bednarek do enough to tame high flying Dominic Calvert-Lewin?

"Marc: It’s been great to see Calvert-Lewin’s form in the past year or so. It will be difficult to stop him, but Saints have proven to be defensively solid at times this season. I can certainly see Calvert-Lewin scoring at some point though."

3 burning questions before the match with Southampton. light. Hot

PRT: Who will be the most threatening Saints player and why?

"Marc: From a goalscoring point of view, Saints’ obvious threat is Danny Ings. We have not had a finisher like him for a long time and our fans expect him to score whenever he gets a chance at the moment. Aside from Ings, keep a look out for the hold-up play and tireless effort from Che Adams alongside him and the attacking mindset of Kyle Walker-Peters at right-back."
