Everton will look to extend their unbeaten record on the road to three matches and boost their chances of ending the Premier League season in eighth position when they face Huddersfield Town at the John Smith's Stadium on Saturday.

The Toffees lost six successive away games between December 30 and March 3 before they finally picked up some points as they beat a lowly Stoke City side 2-1 at the Britannia Stadium last month.

The Merseyside outfit followed that up with a 1-1 draw at another top flight struggler in Swansea City, before they beat Newcastle United 1-0 at Goodison Park on Monday night.

That win lifted them above Leicester City in the standings and into eighth, and that will likely be the highest placing they can achieve given they are eight points adrift of seventh place Burnley with just three matches remaining, and have a hugely inferior goal difference.

Sam Allardyce continues to come under pressure from the Goodison Park faithful both at matches and on social media, but if he continues to win matches then it will only strengthen his position and boost his chances of being in charge next season.

The 63-year-old stuck with the same XI that started against Swansea previously for the visit of the Magpies, although he swapped from a 4-2-3-1 system to a 4-3-3 formation with Wayne Rooney dropping deeper and Theo Walcott and Yannick Bolasie playing as proper wingers.

The former England boss may well be considering making some alterations for the trip to Yorkshire however, as he looks to assess his options for the 2018/19 campaign.

Here is how Everton must line up against Huddersfield, ahead of Jordan Pickford in goal…

Allardyce has stuck with the same back five of Pickford, Seamus Coleman, Phil Jagielka, Michael Keane and Leighton Baines in recent weeks, because there has been little reason to change things.

While they have all performed well, the 63-year-old manager may now be at the stage of the season where he wants to assess some fringe players ahead of the following campaign, and one of those is Ramiro Funes Mori.

The Argentina international has only played 14 minutes of Premier League football following a long-term injury, and he should come into the XI in place of Phil Jagielka at the John Smith's Stadium, with the backline staying otherwise unchanged.

As with the defence, Allardyce has largely struck with the same midfield trio of Morgan Schneiderlin, Idrissa Gueye and Wayne Rooney in recent weeks, whether he has been playing a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 system.

The Toffees boss should go with the former at the John Smith's Stadium however, and while Schneiderlin may well be fit having come off with a dead leg against Newcastle, Beni Baningime should come into the XI in place of the Frenchman to give him an opportunity to stake a claim for more regular minutes.

Allardyce's front four consisted of Rooney, Theo Walcott, Cenk Tosun and Yannick Bolasie against the Magpies, but he should go with a front three against the Terriers, who have conceded 54 goals in their 34 Premier League matches.

While Walcott and Bolasie, who failed to impress Everton fans on Twitter with his latest performance, should keep their spots on the wings, the Everton manager should take Tosun out of the spotlight following four top flight games without finding the net, and give Oumar Niasse an opportunity to impress in the centre-forward position and add to his seven league goals already this term.
