Everton injury update ahead of Luton Town game; massive boost in attack for Dyche's men
Dominic Calvert-Lewin will return to the starting lineup to face Luton
Everton will be trying to secure four victories on the trot as they meet up against relegation-threatened Luton Town on Friday evening. The Toffees have gained nine points from their past three games and are now 11 points clear of danger with just three games left to be played.
As of this writing, Luton are only one point behind Nuno Espirito Santo’s team and is making a valiant effort to pull Nottingham Forest back into the bottom three. The team led by Rob Edwards needs a strong run of play between now and the end of the season because they have dropped four of their last five games in the top tier.
Sean Dyche is confident that Dominic Calvert-Lewin will be back in Everton action for the journey to Luton Town on Friday.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin could not be tested against Brentford owing to a combo of a knee injury and illness. But the attacker is back practising and Dyche is hoping he will be involved.

Beto has been sidelined in both of the recent matches because of a concussion protocol after incurring a head injury in a 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest. He is back in competition after receiving the go-light.
A groyne ailment has kept Seamus Coleman out of action for the last three games. The skipper is also returning to practice having undergone treatments with the club’s sports science experts in recent days.
In the meantime, earlier this week saw Lewis Dobbin play again for the under-21 team, losing 3-0 to Derby County. Due to an ankle issue, the 21-year-old attacker hasn’t played for the first squad in six weeks. Dyche is hopeful that Dobbin will play, but he must be fair about the young player’s health.
Vitalii Mykolenko’s ankle ligament injury sustained in the 2-0 Merseyside derby victory against Liverpool has kept him out for the remainder of the season. Dele Alli (groyne) has not played this season, while Nathan Patterson (hamstring) will not participate in the remaining three games.
