Everton handed big blow for Arsenal game
Everton have been handed a big blow ahead of their Premier League game against Arsenal this weekend.
The Toffees are yet to win a league game this campaign, but they have played out four draws from their opening six outings.
They recently secured a goalless stalemate against Liverpool. It was largely due to the super shot-stopping from Pickford.
The England goalkeeper has been in superb form for the club, but he is now out for four weeks with an untimely thigh injury.
In his absence, Asmir Begovic is expected to don the gloves for the coming games including Sunday's visit of the Emirates.
The news will come as a potential boost for the Gunners, who have the chance to return to winning ways in the top-flight.
The north London giants are top of the division with 15 goals from six games, and will want to sustain their slender lead.
Everton, on the other hand, will be hoping for their first win of the new league campaign after playing out four straight draws.
