According to sky team news, Keane and Jagielka both missing, Christ any enthusiasm I had for this match is rapidly disintegrating.

According to Sky's preview Lyon have a load of missing players too.

Score predictions, DK?

I'm going for a wildly optimistic 2-1 Everton. Rooney with one of our goals.

...we couldn’t beat a team from Cyprus at home so it really is difficult seeing us get the required victory tonight. We worked hard last season to ensure a European campaign but it’s looking like this team is out of its depth.

Williams and Holgate @ CB with cuco the clown at RB, this last minute ticket ive gotten seems like an even worse idea now

wow this could be painful

Well, we're going to win sometime, and it's more likely to happen at home than away. I think we'll sneak this 1-0 or 2-1.

Du côté de l'OL, le meilleur buteur Diaz est laissé au repos, tout comme les défenseurs titulaires Morel et Mendy. La recrue Diop et l'ancien international Grenier sont écartés. Excellent depuis le début de la saison, Feki devraiet être une nouvelle fois titularisé ce jeudi soir. Retour de suspension de Marcelo en défense centrale.

Much weakened Lyon team. Should be winning this.

A quick word to anyone like myself who is making their way down to Goodison tonight:

Just get behind the team from the off, please. I don't subscribe to the notion that the atmosphere is one thing contributing to the poor form, but what I do know is that tonight could well be a season defining game for us and as such, even if we go a goal down, we've gotta rally behind the team.

Forget what you think of the manager, Everton need to win this for Everton and for the fans, not Ronald Koeman's future.

we've been out sang every euro game I've been to ( home ) .. its a graveyard at the moment

Been up since 5am, it's pissing down and I can't say I am excited about going the game tonight , hope they shock me and put in a decent performance.

Yeah, mate. Understandably so too, but just think it's a big game tonight as opposed to the last 3 games which should have been routine.

Think even if we were at full flow somehow this season, Lyon are a good enough side to not be able to expect to turn over.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned it, but for anyone in the US, it looks like the game is on FS1

Great, so I can punch out my boss in frustration at work?

Maybe I'll just listen...

 

[TheFinnFan]

I think we will get rid of Koeman tonight. And yes...in the big picture that would be a positive.

 

[Kantareller]

Nabil Fekir to rip us 3 new ones tonight.

 

[Ducans elbow]

I'm fed up asking for a decent display so I'll just same come on Everton
