    • 13.45 Terry Connor: “Maybe on the back of the Swansea performance, we come out and play in that manner (second half) from the start. We know it's our last home game and we want to go out on a positive finish. And whether it's Everton or Wigan, we want to try to win the game."
    • 13.40 Nikica Jelavic is a man on form. He has scored eight goals in eight Premier League starts for Everton.
