Patrick Boyland reveals another injury boost for Everton on Twitter ahead of Wolves – report

Everton correspondent Patrick Boyland has relayed another positive injury boost ahead of the Toffees’ clash with Wolves this afternoon.

The 25-year-old hasn’t had the best of seasons so far, with his last league goal coming against Arsenal in December.

Since then, Gray has been out with a hip problem and missed the defeat to Tottenham last Monday due to illness.

It now looks as if he is in line to return for the Toffees, though, with Frank Lampard desperate to guide his team away from danger with three points this afternoon.

Boyland took to Twitter on Friday afternoon to relay news from Lampard’s pre-match press conference.

When it came to injuries, he confirmed that both Ben Godfrey and Gray are ‘fit and available’ for the Goodison Park clash.

Godfrey and Gray have been regulars for the Toffees when fit, so having them both back is a significant boost for the club. Indeed, the ex-Leicester winger has actually been the squad’s highest-rated player this season according to WhoScored, an illustration of how much he can contribute when fit to feature.

Everton’s home form may well be crucial as they look to avoid relegation, so having the pair back for Wolves today and possibly Newcastle in midweek is huge.

Hopefully they can play a part in helping Lampard to just a second league victory in charge of Everton this afternoon.
