EVERTON will be desperate to secure their first three points of the season against West London outfit Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium.
Chelsea legend Frank Lampard is under serious pressure having witnessed his side fail to record a single victory in the league this campaign.
Which includes two loses – an opening day defeat to the Blues and a disappointing result against Aston Villa.
However, Toffees fans were given something to cheer about having watched their side progress to the third round of the EFL Cup.
And Brentford’s most recent Premier League outing ended with a crushing blow courtesy of London rivals Fulham so they could be a bit nervy heading into this one.
