Premier League football is back on Boxing Day after its mid-season break on the back of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, with Everton set to get back to business on the home front when they look to put sufficient distance between themselves and the bottom three.
Goodison Park will play host to a relegation six-pointer when Julen Lopetegui’s bottom-dwelling Wolves look to arrest a five-match winless run with the Spanish manager looking for his first three-point haul in the top flight of English football.

Frank Lampard has given a key update surrounding star striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin in the run-up to Everton’s boxing day clash with Wolves at Goodison Park, stating that “It’s going to be tight for Wolves” when it comes to the England internationals availability for selection.
Andros Townsend suffered a setback during his pathway to recovery and should be out of contention as well, while Mason Holgate and James Garner are both also unavailable for the clash on the blue half of Merseyside.
