Moyes may gamble on Arteta

Everton manager David Moyes will make a late decision on Mikel Arteta’s availability for the Premier League match with Stoke at Goodison Park tomorrow.

Everton manager David Moyes will make a late decision on Mikel Arteta’s availability for the Premier League match with Stoke at Goodison Park tomorrow.

Midfielder Arteta, who missed last week’s 1-1 draw at Tottenham with a slight hamstring strain, will undergo a fitness test tomorrow.

Moyes concedes the game comes “too soon” for Jack Rodwell who is closing in on a return after two months out with an ankle injury, meaning he remains on the sidelines alongside Leon Osman (ankle), Marouane Fellaini (hamstring), Ross Barkley (broken leg) and Victor Anichebe (knee).

Provisional squad: Howard, Neville, Distin, Heitinga, Baines, Hibbert, Cahill, Arteta, Beckford, Bilyaletdinov, Gueye, Coleman, Yakubu, Mustafi, Silva, Baxter, Wallace, Mucha, Pienaar, Saha.
