Everton start their summer friendly programme when they take on Arsenal tonight (00.00 BST).
The Toffees have been back to training for almost two weeks now as Frank Lampard prepares for his first full campaign in charge.
After narrowly avoiding Premier League relegation last term, Everton will be determined to not get dragged into another dogfight.
The Blues have jetted off to America for a pre-season tour.
They meet top-flight rivals Arsenal at the M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore and Lampard will be keen for his troops to see his troops carry out what they’ve been working on since returning.
You would imagine that Everton will give most players a run-out during the 90 minutes against the Gunners.
But will Lampard start with a strong team or look to mix things up? Here’s our prediction.

2. RB - Nathan Patterson
Played just once after joining Everton from Rangers in January. But is now over his ankle injury and will have a point to prove. Seamus Coleman may just be given longer to recover after picking up an injury on international duty. Photo: Lewis Storey/Getty Images
3. CB - James Tarkowski
Supporters will be relishing the chance to see the new signing in his first game.
4. CB - Ben Godfrey
