Premier League Resumes as Everton Travel to Face Hull City

The Premier League action returns following a two-week international break, with Everton making the journey to the MKM Stadium to face newly promoted Hull City. The fixture kicks off at 2 pm BST and is broadcast live on Sky Sports Premier League in the UK. Hull City have performed strongly in their initial campaign back in the top flight, matching competitive early-season form as they host the visiting Toffees.

Everton manager David Moyes has opted to retain Armstrong in central midfield. However, there remains no place in the starting lineup for Hackney, who is named among the substitutes alongside a wider group of players. Vitaliy Mykolenko missed out on the matchday selection entirely.

The available substitutes for the fixture feature Travers, O’Brien, George, Dibling, Nørgaard, Alcaraz, Hackney, Röhl, and Graham. Additional substitute mentions across squad lists also include Phillips, Morita, Belloumi, McNair, Norton-Cuffy, Stroud, Herrington, and Iroegbunam.

Off-Pitch Developments

Beyond the immediate on-field preparations for the match at Hull, major news emerged away from the pitch during the week. The club's owners, The Friedkin Group, announced that Everton is up for sale.
