Mikel Arteta and Victor Anichebe will miss Everton's game at Aston Villa on Wednesday.
The Spaniard has been missing since the Blues' 2-0 win over Manchester City last month, while Anichebe was stretchered off against Bolton earlier in March.
The news means David Moyes is expected to draw from the same squad that drew 2-2 with West Ham last time out.
"I don't see Mikel being fit for the game," Moyes told the media at his pre-match press briefing.
"Victor Anichebe won't be fit for the game either. I see everybody else as being okay though."
Any guesses when Arteta might be back? I've got him for around 9 (+7) but his not featuring the past few weeks is really getting old...
ReplyDeleteMy $0.02, based on nothing... he probabaly could go if he were needed. But I'm guessing - just guessing here - that Moyes is shutting him down for the season. Maybe he plays in home games, or the final home game of the season, but why risk him otherwise?
