Everton are seventh, Watford are 13th. But a Hornets win today would put them level on points with the Toffees.

A 4-0 win would put them above Everton on goal difference but I wouldn't put money on that.

Marco Silva is playing a different brand of football this season and the Everton fans are buying into that.

Things are changing here and it's important Everton win this game to carry on their optimistic start to the season.

Speaking of Ademola Lookman - on the Everton bench - remember when he was banging them in in the Bundesliga?

This season it's Jadon Sancho who is leading the way for Britons in Germany. His winner in Saturday's derby with Schalke was his sixth Borussia Dortmund goal of the season.

That's first Premier League starts for both winger Ken Sema, a 25-year-old summer signing from Ostersund, and 19-year-old midfielder Domingos Quina, who left West Ham for the Hornets this year.

Everton manager Marco Silva makes three changes from the team that drew with Newcastle last Wednesday.

Michael Keane returns in defence having been rested against the Magpies while Theo Walcott and Bernard also come back in.

Kurt Zouma, Cenk Tosun and Ademola Lookman are the men to make way.

Everton XI: Pickford, Coleman, Keane, Mina, Digne, Gomes, Gueye, Sigurdsson, Bernard, Walcott, Richarlison

Subs: Stekelenburg, Baines, Zouma, Tosun, Davies, Calvert-Lewin, Lookman

Watford manager Javi Gracia shuffles his pack slightly from the team that lost to Manchester City last Tuesday.

Ken Sema and Domingos Quina are the two changes with Nathaniel Chalobah and Will Hughes, who has a knock, missing out.

Watford XI: Foster, Kiko, Cathcart, Kabasele, Holebas, Doucoure, Quina, Sema, Pereyra, Success, Deeney

Subs: Gomes, Mariappa, Deulofeu, Masina, Chalobah, Wilmot, Okaka

Tim: Can we extend it to owners? I nominate Hicks and Gillet

Three changes for Everton, all fairly expected, and two for Watford - with Will Hughes sidelined.

Detailed team news for both sides coming soon.

Welcome to Goodison Park for tonight's Premier League match between Everton and Watford.

Marco Silva has welcomed Javi Garcia, the Watford squad and fans to his new home in his programme notes.

We will soon find out what reception the Watford fans will give their former manager. There is talk of the away fans taunting him with rubber snakes when he makes his way into the dugout.

Troy Deeney has joked he will "smash" his former team-mate Richarlison when the two meet in the 20:00 GMT kick-off.

A win for Everton would move them back ahead of Manchester United into sixth in the Premier League. Watford could go ninth if they win.

The dispute between Everton and Watford is yet to be resolved over Marco Silva as he prepares to face his former club. Watford lodged an official complaint for an illegal approach from Everton for Silva when he was at Vicarage Road last season. A heavy fine is the likely sanction.

Silva has since been reunited with Richarlison. Last season for Watford, he scored five goals in his first 13 matches but failed to score again in 28 appearances. He has already surpassed that with seven goals in 13 since his £35m-plus switch to Merseyside. Watford will be aware of his threat.

I watched Watford against Manchester City, where they rallied late, but it's still five matches without a win. Javi Gracia has talked about still creating good chances, so he's not worried - for the time being at least.

Some ex-Everton and Watford players in this quiz...

Can you name the 13 men to make 500 Premier League appearances? Have a go here.

Alphonse Rawlinson: Whilst I'm not a fan of Marco Silva, head truly turned after Everton's approach (at 10 games in?!) , more mad at Brendan "Mr Integrity" Rodgers, claimed he was staying, gone to Reading a week later.

Everton have no new injury concerns, with Morgan Schneiderlin back in contention after missing seven matches with a leg injury.

Michael Keane is set to return, having been rested against Newcastle, along with Theo Walcott and Bernard.

Watford are without Etienne Capoue, who is suspended following his late red card against Leicester.

Will Hughes is a doubt with a knock but Tom Cleverley is nearing a return after 11 months out.

The starting line-ups will be announced at 19:00 GMT.

What is the angriest you've ever been with a former player or manager?

I've never forgiven Lee Steele for scoring the Leyton Orient goal which sealed Oxford's relegation to the Conference in 2006.

The Premier League opened an investigation in September into a claim Everton made an illegal approach for Marco Silva when he was Watford manager.

Watford reported their top-flight rivals for an alleged rule breach after the Toffees tried to hire the Portuguese last season.

Silva was sacked by Watford in January, with the Hornets citing Everton's approach as "the catalyst" behind their decision to dismiss him.

Silva was finally appointed Everton boss on a three-year deal in May, replacing Sam Allardyce.

The two clubs have gone through a failed mediation process.

An independent law firm was tasked with looking into the matter but is unlikely to report back until 2019.

Ssssssssssss (is that the noise a snake makes?)

Watford fans are planning to meet Everton manager Marco Silva with inflatable snakes today, according to several national newspapers.

Maybe they could borrow the ones Derby fans used for Stoke boss Gary Rowett last month...
