Everton team news
Everton's injury problems show no signs of abating with Louis Saha unlikely to feature at home to West Brom in the Barclays Premier League tomorrow.
The striker made a substitute appearance - his first for three months after hamstring trouble - at Newcastle last weekend but is now struggling with a thigh problem.
His fellow forward Victor Anichebe (knee) will be out for at least three weeks, while Mikel Arteta has been ruled out for the rest of the season with a ruptured cruciate.
Jack Rodwell has not trained all week after also sustaining an injury at St James' Park. However, midfielder Tim Cahill and right-back Tony Hibbert return after suspension.
Provisional squad: Howard, Jagielka, Lescott, Yobo, Baines, Hibbert, Gosling, Van der Meyde, Neville, Fellaini, Osman, Cahill, Jo, Saha, Nash, Castillo, Jacobsen.
