TEAM NEWS
Carlo Ancelotti has revealed Richarlison, Gylfi Sigurdsson and Alex Iwobi will be unavailable for Tuesday night's home clash with Newcastle United.
Richarlison missed Saturday's 1-1 draw at West Ham United with a minor knee issue, while Sigurdsson was sidelined with a groin problem.
Iwobi, who has been out since suffering a hamstring injury in Everton's 0-0 draw against Arsenal on 21 December, is nearing a return but will be unable to feature against the Magpies.
Ancelotti added Michael Keane's fitness will be assessed ahead of the match after a neck problem kept him out of last weekend's game at London Stadium.
Newcastle pair Paul Dummett and Jetro Willems have both been ruled out for the rest of the season.
Steve Bruce could also be without Andy Carroll, Yoshinori Muto, Ki Sung-yueng and DeAndre Yedlin.

ONE TO WATCH: Allan Saint-Maximin
The 22-year-old made his comeback from a hamstring injury in Newcastle’s dramatic victory over Chelsea on Saturday and provided the assist for Isaac Hayden’s last-gasp winner.
A skilful, direct winger, Saint-Maximin predominantly operates from the left flank.
He joined the Magpies from Ligue 1 side Nice last summer and Newcastle boss Steve Bruce recently said the Frenchman is “as naturally gifted a player as you will find”.
