In theory, Everton should present few problems, four off the bottom and with only pride to play for. But the practicality is a little different, the Toffees an improving side who gave Arsenal problems when they met in January – and Chelsea in the Cup quarter, losing by the odd goal in both.

The Gunners, though, are starting to look a little bit more like their old selves. Beth Mead is back and scoring, Vivianne Miedema is getting closer, and Leah Williamson has re-ensconced at the back. That may come too late to save this season, but football being the never-ending continuum that it is, they’re also playing for next – and the chance to, perhaps, save a manager who is surely under pressure, by reminding people what they can do with their best players available.

important events
5 minutes Perova held onto the ball for a second or two longer than is common sense, and when she slid the ball outside of herself, Little was offside.
4 minutes In that case, I would expect Williamson to move forward with the ball and create an extra man in midfield. The quality of her possession could make a crucial difference here.
3 minutes From the looks of it, Everton are playing a 5-4-1, trying to keep it compact from top to bottom and close to left and right.
1 minute The visitors looked decent, with Perova breaking through midfield to find Ford on the right, but her cross found Brosnan in the stomach.
1 minute alright, let’s go!
The players take a knee. All black lives matter.
The team gathers Then we leave.
The team is with us, Arsenal at the top of the Aztec tribute.
Ideval says every season has its positives and negatives. While he appreciates the fans’ efforts, Brian Sorensen is looking forward to seeing how the Holmgaard twins perform together.
Is Jonas Idewall in trouble? It’s hard to blame the manager when every team in the world is going to be without Williamson, Miedema and Meade, but at the same time should it have looked better than this? My feeling is he can have another season, but he’ll need to make significant improvements.
Katie McCabe told the BBC that playing the full season was just regular season for her. And injuries are common in football. Arsenal are really disappointed with the way the season started, especially with the elimination in the Champions League, but now they want to finish the season on a positive note.
Walton Hall Park is sold out And the atmosphere is building. The weather looks nice, but I’m sure it’ll be fresh.
I’ll miss her when she’s gone Isn’t it something serious?
Great news for the Arsenal man. I’m really looking forward to seeing how Timber develops in England and it could make a huge difference if he can reinvent himself as a full-fledged left-back.

One of the problems Ideval has is the number of talented attackers. Of course, it’s possible that he knows more about football than I do, but I’d put Miedema at the heart of the team and go from there – especially since his team lacks a bit of pace in midfield. .
We wish Vivianne Miedema all the best as she returns to her best form. Let’s not forget that even before her injury, Aidevall frequently put Blacksthenias ahead of her, but she’s an absolute genius and we need her.
Nothing to do with our game, but everything to do with our game. Football is beautiful.
So where is the game? My guess is that Everton will play with a back five, with Arsenal struggling with twin strikers and forcing Williamson and Catley to mark one each. The full-backs then have a responsibility to maintain width, given the narrowness of the midfield three, which could cause problems against Arsenal’s 4-4-2, overloading them with wide sets. there is a possibility. But if Everton can win the numbers game in midfield, this could be a tricky afternoon for the Gunners, especially with Mead out of the game.
To read:
Arsenal, on the other hand, Things haven’t changed after the 3-0 win against Leicester, but I’m not surprised. Beth Meade and Alessia Russo scored goals on the day, and if those two score goals, the team is likely in good shape.
Everton made three changes from last week’s game against Brighton. I think Catherine Moller-Kuhle was injured and Emma Bissell was used in her place. Hannah Bennison will also be absent, with Dejana Stefanovic and Halldor Stenevik taking part, as well as Aurora Galli.
Let’s make some teams!

preamble
Is it now or never? With three games remaining, Jonas Eydevall’s Arsenal are in third place, six points behind leaders Manchester City, who they will play next weekend, with Chelsea tied for second place, but ahead of the game, they have been given a new starting point. They sit somewhere in the middle as the growing resentment excites their senses. of mission.
In theory, Everton should have little trouble as they are four places off the bottom and can only play with pride. However, the real story is a little different, with the Toffees giving Arsenal problems when they met in January, but being a growing side, and Chelsea losing in the cup quarter-finals with both bizarre goals. .
But the Gunners are slowly starting to resemble their old selves. Beth Mead came back and scored, Vivian Miedema came close and Leah Williamson came back at the back. It may be too late to save this season, but they are playing for next season because football is a never-ending continuum. And perhaps a chance to save a manager under pressure. By reminding people of that. They can do it with the best players available.
Kickoff: 12:30pm
