Richarlison leading the line is nothing new for Everton these days.
With Dominic Calvert-Lewin sidelined for the majority of the season due to injury, the Brazilian has been used at the point of the attack frequently by manager Frank Lampard and predecessor Rafael Benitez.
It's a role Richarlison fulfils to great effect for his country, although the talent within the Selecao squad means his brief in iconic gold is vastly different to that in royal blue.
After starting his Everton career on the left wing, it was Marco Silva who used Richarlison as the sole centre-forward for the first time a couple of months into the duo's first season at Goodison Park - during a trip to the King Power Stadium against Leicester City in 2018.

Some encouraging cameo performances from another new signing Bernard saw him earn his first Premier League start on the left that day, pushing the acquisition from Watford infield and further forward. Richarlison delivered, as he steered home his compatriot's pinpoint cross and ran the Foxes defence ragged in a 2-1 win; an exasperated and exhausted Wes Morgan felled the Everton forward in the second half to pick up his second yellow card, unable to cope with the new signing's vim and vigour.
Since then, Richarlison has found goal hunting against the Foxes a profitable pursuit, which will encourage Evertonians ahead of Sunday's crucial trip to the King Power on Sunday for another relegation tussle.
He has netted five times against Leicester, making them his favourite opponents since arriving on Merseyside, including a stoppage-time equaliser at Goodison Park when the teams drew 1-1 at Goodison just last month.
The most recent goal came in a game where the 24-year-old was uncharacteristically profligate with his opportunities, but also in the middle of Richarlison's best scoring run of the current campaign.
The winner against Chelsea on Sunday made it four goals in five games for the Selecao star, who has dug deep as he reaches the climax of a mammoth individual campaign.
As such, you sense the Leicester players and supporters would have been itching for a potential ban to drop this week after Richarlison tossed a smoke bomb off the pitch in celebration of his Chelsea winner. No sanctions have arrived at the time of writing.
And you also sense he will be at the heart of Everton's effort again on Sunday, most likely as the man leading the charge through the middle as he did four years ago to such great effect.
After Tammy Abraham scored a towering header against the Foxes in the Europa Conference League semi-final on Thursday for Roma, there may be a temptation from Frank Lampard to turn to Calvert-Lewin from the start. At his best, the England striker has the physical gifts and goalscoring instincts to trouble a Leicester side that has been vulnerable to crosses all season. Plus, Richarlison has been equally comfortable coming off the flank in his years as a Toffee.
But the current version of Calvert-Lewin has not carried the same aura as last season's and given Lampard turned to Salomon Rondon ahead of the no. 9 in the latter stages against Chelsea last weekend, perhaps last term's top scorer is still some way off full fitness.
Anyway, ask yourself - who do Everton need to get closest to goal given their attacking struggles in recent months?
After a draining encounter and eventual defeat on Thursday in the Eternal City, who will the leggy Leicester centre-halves want to play against least?
And after the damage he's done against them down the years, who will Foxes fans not want to see charging after their defenders with the kind of gumption that flummoxed Cesar Azpilicueta on Sunday?
Need a clue? He's Brazilian.
