Everton have scored fewer first-half goals than any other Premier League side this season (five).

The Toffees have failed to score before half-time in their last six games in the competition, their longest such run since December 2017 to January 2018 (six).

No goals so far in the second half of this game yet either but the pressure is building...

... Anthony Gordon sends the ball in but Emiliano Buendia heads away.

Matty Cash is booked for pulling back Richarlison on the left and Everton have a free kick in a decent position...

Aston Villa make their first change of the game as Philippe Coutinho, who was largely quiet bar one decent header that was tipped over, is replaced by Carney Chukwuemeka.

How many opportunities are Everton going to miss? Another one goes begging as Yerry Mina rises to meet a ball swung into the box but again heads over.

Goodison Park is roused by a few challenges being thrown in by Everton and they are finally looking a threat. Villa still carry real danger on the break, though.

And another chance as Yerry Mina heads wide as Everton go close again.

The pressure is building and Emi Martinez is booked for timewasting as he stalls over a goalkick.

Lovely move down the flank by Everton as Anthony Gordon, lively since he came on, swings a dangerous ball into the box and Dominic Calvert-Lewin meets it but can't direct his effort into the back of the net.

Everton make a third change, this one enforced as Abdoulaye Doucoure limps off. He is replaced by Tyler Onyango.

Everton are doing better. There has been a lift. They need to get Demarai Gray coming in off the side and probing in those channels, but certainly there has been a lift and hopefully they can improve on that.

Tyrone Mings may have been involved in that scramble off the line from Ben Godfrey's header but either way, Aston Villa escape.

It has been a good response by Everton in this half.

Close!

Emi Martinez sticks out a hand to keep out a point-blank header from Ben Godfrey as the hosts increase the pressure.

Great save!

Michael Greenfield: Everton are proving what Manchester United, Watford, Newcastle, Norwich etc etc have shown - changing managers doesn't make a difference when the players can't be bothered to put the effort in.

Everton need to try to test the goalkeeper. There has been fighting and scrapping in midfield and they have got the ball forward but I don't think Emiliano Martinez has had a save to make.

Aston Villa look comfortable. The worry for Everton is they start to get more control and take the game away from them.

Another yellow card for Everton as Yerry Mina blocks off a surging run by Jacob Ramsey.

Almost an immediate impact by Anthony Gordon as his ball in is headed just over by Richarlison.

Better from the hosts!

I didn't think it was a foul, never mind a yellow card. Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Ezri Konsa both went for the ball. He does catch him with his arms but he is using his arms to jump.
