Everton vs Southampton – Predicted lineup and team news
Everton take on Southampton in the Premier League today in the final fixture at Goodison Park.
The Toffees wave farewell to the famous ground this afternoon, before their move to a new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock next season. Everton leave Goodison Park after 133 years, though the club have announced the ground will become the permanent home of their women's side in 2025/26.

David Moyes will be determined to lead his side to victory on what will be an emotional occasion for the Blues.
Already-relegated Southampton are perhaps the perfect opponent for the send-off. The Saints were relegated with a record seven games to spare last month. However, Southampton earned a goalless draw with Manchester City last weekend, avoiding joining 2007/08 Derby County as the team with the lowest-ever Premier League points total.
David Moyes continues to be without James Tarkowski, whose season is over due to a hamstring injury. Fellow defender Jake O'Brien missed last weekend's win at Fulham, though replacement Michael Keane scored in that victory in West London.
Orel Mangala and Jesper Lindstrom also remain sidelined, with the injured loanees likely to have played their last games for Everton. Moyes may opt to hand Seamus Coleman some minutes in what could be the club captain's final home game for the Toffees, after 427 appearances.
Everton predicted XI: Pickford; Young, Keane, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Alcaraz, Gueye, Garner, Doucoure, McNeil; Beto
Everton host Southampton in the Premier League on Sunday May 18th 2025. Kick-off at Goodison Park is 12:00 BST.
In the UK,Everton v Southampton will be live on TNT Sports 1, TNT Sports Ultimate and discovery+.

'Don't settle for this': Postecoglou wants ambition from Tottenham after Europa League success
LONDON (AP) — Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has urged the club to show ambition after ending its 17-year trophy drought as he awaits a decision on whether he will stay on for a third season at the English team. Tottenham claimed its first piece of major silverware since 2008 by beating Manchester United 1-0 in the Europa League final last month, earning in the process a spot in next season's Champions League. Advertisement Postecoglou remains in the dark about his future, though, with his status affected by Tottenham's 17th-placed finish — its lowest since the Premier League was founded in 1992. In an interview with Australian Broadcasting Corp. — published Monday — while on a family holiday in Greece, Postecoglou said he hasn't wanted to let the club 'just enjoy the moment' because he 'wanted us to think about what's next.' 'Don't settle for this,' he tells ABC's Australian Story. 'We've got a taste of it now. My players have got a taste for it. The club's got a taste for it. Well, let's make sure we're back here again.' Those comments explain why, during Tottenham's trophy parade, the 59-year-old Australian declared in front of tens of thousands of fans in north London: 'Season three is always better than season two.' Advertisement However, away from winning the Europa League, Tottenham has been on a downward trajectory in the Premier League since the team's strong start to Postecoglou's first season in charge. This season, he clearly made Europa League success the priority over results in the Premier League, rotating heavily and protecting the fitness of various key players. Tottenham lost 22 of its 38 league games and that woeful record has increased the scrutiny and pressure on Postecoglou. 'That was when the laser focus came in,' Postecoglou said in Australian Story when explaining why he essentially sacrificed the league. 'Every decision I made was around, 'Well, how do we navigate this to get to where we want to?'' ___ AP soccer: The Associated Press
