It was a case of deja vu on Saturday for Everton, as the Toffees squandered a two-goal lead for the second game in succession.

Sean Dyche’s side shocked Aston Villa by taking a 2-0 lead inside 30 minutes at Villa Park, with Dwight McNeill and Dominic Calvert-Lewin both beating Emiliano Martinez in the home goal.

However, an instant reply by Ollie Watkins changed the whole feel of the game, as Everton began to look vulnerable once again, and the England international scored again to equalise proceedings early in the second half before Jhon Duran’s stunning strike secured the 3-2 victory for Villa.

Dyche has come in for questioning considering his whole game plan is often centred around keeping it tight, nicking a goal or two, and then holding on to what you have, as Everton have now lost 23 points from winning positions since the start of last season.

Starved of silverware, Everton fans will not accept passing up on a relatively good opportunity to reach the fourth round of a competition they have never won.

Last season could well have been a golden opportunity to end their poor run, but after Amadou Onana missed a potential game-winning penalty in their EFL Cup quarter-final tie with Fulham, Everton were floored, and then did not win again for almost four months.

Southampton travel to Goodison Park once again as relegation candidates, but they can solely focus on cup matters for a few days at least after a fourth straight defeat on Saturday against Manchester United.

Like Everton, Southampton also made a bright start, but they could not take advantage, as Cameron Archer missed a first-half penalty which would have given them the lead.

In the ultimate sucker punch, Manchester United went up the other end and scored twice before the break, and then went on to win 3-0 at St Mary’s.

Toothless in attack has been most costly for Southampton, as their only goal this season remains a late consolation against Brentford in a 3-1 defeat, and failing to score against 10-man Newcastle United, and missing a penalty at the weekend sums up the current state they find themselves in.

However, the EFL Cup has often been a happy hunting ground for Southampton, as they have reached round four in 10 of the last 13 seasons, as well as reaching the final in 2017 and the semi-finals in 2023.

Everton Team News

New signings Jesper Lindstrom and Jake O’Brien could start to provide a further opportunity for Everton to settle into the side as they did in the last round against Doncaster Rovers.

Jarrad Branthwaite is most likely going to be held back for the weekend trip to the King Power Stadium after missing the first month of the season, and so could Vitalii Mykolenko if he does not recover from illness in time.

Southampton Team News

Jack Stephens will be suspended for Southampton after he was sent off for a rash challenge on Alejandro Garnacho at the weekend.

Teenager Tyler Dibling was fantastic on his full Premier League debut, winning the penalty which Archer ultimately missed, so he could drop out to be kept fresh for the weekend.
