Everton vs. Southampton combined XI: £15 million Saints man misses out, 42 goal Toffees man in
Who makes it to the combined starting lineup of Everton and Southampton.
Everton travel to Southampton on Sunday with a hope to carry their unbeaten run to 6 games. Both the sides are filled with firing strikers, quality midfielders and engaging full backs. Saints’ form hasn’t transpired on the table as they sit 13th with two wins in five games. Yet, Everton cannot take Ralph Hasenhuttl’s men for granted. The South Coast side will come with full firepower to spoil the Toffees’ party.

Goalkeeper: Jordan Pickford
Jordan Pickford has had a tough week. The media’s witch hunt after the Van Dijk tackle looks unrelenting. Pickford has been sent threats and abuses by the Liverpool fans and media houses have been dragging the matter for days now.
The Englishman needs our support and backing the most this weekend after a horrible last week. Despite having a topsy turvy season, Pickford has shown quality in bits and parts. He pulled off two terrific saves against Liverpool and needs to put another strong display against Southampton.
