Everton will start a new era in their new stadium on Saturday with a friendly against AS Roma. The senior men’s team will play for fans for fans at Bramley-Moore Dock for the first time.
The Toffees concluded their Premier League Summer Series campaign with a 2-2 draw with Manchester United in Atlanta. The side of David Moyes came twice from behind to pick up their only point of the tour through the United States after defeats against Bournemouth and West Ham Utd.
Since then they have announced the signing of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall from Chelsea to strengthen midfield. Dewsbury-Hall is the fifth signature of the summer for Everton that brought in Thierno Barry, Mark Travers and Adam Aznou, while also making Charly Alcaraz’s loan permanent.
The front line is still short of numbers and Everton has to sign a player or two before the right flank in the last few weeks of the transfer window.

Everton Team News
Everton could miss Nathan Patterson’s services, which was excluded from the team to tackle Manchester United after being diagnosed with Hernia-like symptoms in the United States.
Jarrad Branthwaite has just returned to the training after missing the tour through the US because of a lump. The friendly against Roma probably came too early that he made his return to the field. Moyes would like to keep his star center-back fit and fresh for the Premier League opener instead.
In his absence, James Tarkowski, whose previous start was his first since April, and Michael Keane is expected to lead the line of defense.
Thierno Barry was able to make his first start for the blues for the home fans in this game, while new signing sessions Adam Aznou and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall probably also get minutes.
Everton predicted to start XI: Pickford; O’Brien, Markowski, Keane, Mykoleko; Garner, Guee; N; Barry.

“Everton could miss Nathan Patterterson’s services”.
I think that can be a positive!
Aznou can play back immediately and it would be interesting to see how he would manage it on that side.
