Bolasie, Williams And Lukaku Start

Yannick Bolasie and Ashley Williams will make their first Premier League starts for Everton against Stoke City this afternoon.

Romelu Lukaku is also included in the first XI for a league match for the first time this term as the Blues look to build on their opening day draw with Spurs and last weekend's 2-1 win at West Bromwich Albion.

Bolasie and Williams came off the bench at the Hawthorns seven days ago and also started Tuesday's EFL Cup win over Yeovil Town.

That duo and Lukaku are the three changes from the victory over the Baggies, with Ramiro Funes Mori, James McCarthy and Gerard Deulofeu dropping out.
