The stakes for Frank Lampard are even higher than the visitors’ need for
Champions League qualification. Eight defeats in 12 matches, the latest an
act of self-implosion at Burnley, has left Everton’s latest manager
fielding questions about his future already and the club’s Premier League
status on the critical list. His four victories have all come on home soil,
however, while Ralf Rangnick’s team have won only three of their last 11
fixtures in all competitions. Cristiano Ronaldo is available having missed
last week’s fortunate draw against Leicester through illness. Andy Hunter
