A minute's applause at Goodison Park for former Everton and Scotland forward Alex Young, who died last month.

Some 66 players come out of the tunnels, three footballs are grabbed off plinths by referees and we are almost ready to go in our Premier League games.

This is a game in which I'm expecting goals.

Bournemouth have conceded 36 goals in their past 15 league games, while West Ham have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last six.

The Cherries have let in three or more goals in 10 league games this season - they really need to tighten up at the back to avoid being dragged into a relegation battle.

But they're missing Nathan Ake, and the absence of Tyrone Mings for the next five games won't help.

Yet it's an important game for West Ham too, as they aren't going through a great spell either.

In short, both teams need a win to turn around a very indifferent spell.

Since getting new managers just days apart in early January, these two sides have made the encouraging improvements those appointments were designed to provoke.

That said, while Paul Clement has steered Swansea some five points clear of the drop zone, Marco Silva's Hull still remain embedded within it.

The Tigers still have to face the four sides immediately around them in the table, three of which - perhaps crucially - are at home, beginning with the visit of the Swans.

Having taken seven of his eight points so far at the KCOM Stadium, Silva will be acutely aware of the potentially irreversible damage a defeat this weekend would inflict.

Where was Fernando Llorente when Bob Bradley was Swansea manager?

Paul Clement has gone in and said 'my goodness, I have a centre forward who can score'.

Remember his first goal last week against Burnley? It came from the cross of the season.

Last week's defeat at Spurs may have ended Everton's nine-game unbeaten run but it hasn't dampened their genuine belief they can grab a top-six spot.

At home they have been excellent, winning their last four at Goodison, scoring an astonishing 15 goals along the way, with the unstoppable Romelu Lukaku finding the net in each victory.

The Belgian is well known to Baggies fans after his loan spell there four seasons ago, and the Albion defence will have to be at its miserly best again.

With his annual target of 40 points safely secured, Tony Pulis now has an additional 10 in his sights as West Brom look to break the 50-point barrier for the first time in their Premier League history.

Everton fan Tony Bellew, who beat David Haye in the big boxing match last weekend, is at Goodison Park today.

Leaders Doncaster face Cheltenham and bottom-of-the-table Newport County take on Crewe Alexandra. 

An interesting fixture - when the Exiles threw a teenage Michael Flynn out of their youth academy for defying club rules, he feared he would spend his life doing his part-time job, stacking shelves in the local supermarket.

Four hundred Football League games later, however, Flynn will lead the team to Crewe today as their manager  after the sacking of Graham Westley,  albeit with the club teetering on the edge of being relegated back to non-league.

Follow that, and the rest of League Two's fixtures here.

Fleetwood  hope to extend their unbeaten run to an incredible 19 games today as they face fellow promotion-chasers  Bolton  at 15:00 GMT - a win would take them six points clear of third-placed  Scunthorpe. 

Mark Robins has returned as manager of Coventry City after a five-year gap and says he wants to simply get on with the job of restoring success to the Sky Blues.

Robins has inherited a City side lying bottom of League One, 13 points adrift of safety with just 11 games left. They face Bradford today at 15:00 GMT. 

And there's the Manchester derby - sorry, a Manchester derby - between Oldham and Bury.

It's tight at the top. 

Brighton moved level on points with Championship leaders Newcastle last night with a 3-0 win over Derby County. 

The Magpies face Fulham at St James' Park at 15:00 GMT and are favourites to extend their lead - they are unbeaten in their last four home league games against the London side. 

Elsewhere, Alan Irvine will take charge of Norwich for the game against relegation-threatened Blackburn. The Canaries sacked manager Alex Neil after just over two years in charge. City had failed to win in five games under the former Hamilton boss, leaving them nine points outside the top six.

West Brom did not get going against Crystal Palace last weekend and I would expect a response to that defeat from Tony Pulis' side.

Everton also lost, against Tottenham, and I think this will be another tough game for them, especially for Toffees striker Romelu Lukaku because the Baggies defence will make life difficult for him.
