Michael Keane is restored to Everton's starting XI, as manager Frank Lampard makes one enforced change for Wednesday's Premier League meeting with Watford.

Lampard sticks with the front three of Richarlison, playing at the home of the club he left for Everton in summer 2018, Anthony Gordon and Demarai Gray. He is partnered by Abdoulaye Doucoure in the centre of midfield. Defender Keane replaced the stricken Yerry Mina during the opening half of the win over Leciester City on Sunday.

A game every bit as bad as the scoreline suggests ended with Frank Lampard's side limping just a little bit closer to safety.

There was just enough time for Samuel Kalu to have another go, this time from a free-kick, but the half-time whistle went with neither goalkeeper required to make a save. Watford fans had found their voice by then, singing either 'we've got the ball', 'we've lost the ball' or 'we'll win it back'. A little good humour can go a long way in adversity. Moussa Sissoko then headed just wide of the England keeper's left-hand post from a free-kick. The league table shows they are now two points ahead of Leeds with a game in hand. Finally the pair combined but Gordon's volley was always arrowing skywards. Injuries also forced him to put four teenagers on the bench.

That means coaching staff have kept faith in the fitness of Fabian Delph, whose recent return from injury has led to questions about whether he can play games in quick succession. The big question from the line-ups is whether Alex Iwobi will operate as a right-wing back when the opponents have possession - as he did in the wins over Leicester and Chelsea - or whether he will return top his favoured role as an attacking centre midfielder. Michael Keane starts for Everton as he replaces Yerry Mina in the starting line-up for Watford.

Everton put further distance between themselves and the bottom three but could only play out a lacklustre goalless draw at already-relegated Watford.

Alex Iwobi found Anthony Gordon on the half-hour, but he was unable to direct his shot goalwards. Everton looked to be getting closer and almost took the lead in the 62nd minute when they won the ball back in midfield and Iwobi found Demarai Gray but his shot across goal was inches wide of the far post. Ben Foster was called upon to make his first save of the match early in the second half as he kept out a deflected Richarlison shot that was heading into the back of the net, but the Hornets keeper managed to palm the ball behind.

A dreadful game between two poor sides moved Everton a step closer to Premier League safety.

But the ball runs away from him a touch so that he has to slide into his shot, and it slips just wide of the far post. I guess, according to the standards of this game, that constitutes a chance.

In a game low on chances, Ben Foster's late save from Vitalii Mykolenko ensured Watford drew 0-0 with Everton.

Lampard then had reason to look relieved when only a last-ditch tackle from Séamus Coleman prevented a Watford breakaway. Denied the services of Yerry Mina, Lampard recalled Michael Keane at the heart of his five-man defence and he almost gifted Watford an early lead, miscuing a clearance after Jordan Pickford had given possession away. But despite the confidence-boosting wins over Chelsea and Leicester Everton never really looked like finding a way past Ben Foster even when Lampard threw on Dominic Calvert-Lewin for the last 15 minutes and it was Watford’s fans who greeted the final whistle with glee.

You offer us the position we are in now - to have it in our own hands with two games up at Goodison - we would bite your hand off." We toiled and kept trying to play and produce in the final third and we were slightly off, but I was thinking after the game - you offer us seven points from Chelsea, Leicester and Watford, we bite your hand off. He stated he was "relatively happy" with the point and said: "I sensed their [the players'] frustration because the lads are in there, they want to do it, they want a run, they are feeling it - they wanted to come here and win.

Would they stick with what had been working in recent matches, or switch it up for a different opponent? The gap between Everton and Leeds stands at two points, though the Toffees have played one game fewer. Speaking with De Telegraaf, the 29-year-old said: "First of all, abroad, you don’t have all your friends and family around you. I’m pleased he’s getting those numbers, he is a player of such a high level. These things are out of your hands but Mason is a fantastic player. To what extent soccer changes, depends on club and league. You know it must have been a bad week when a manager has to start his programme notes by assuring his own supporters he did not 'snub' them. He moved to address this in the programme, writing: "I firstly would like to dispel any uncertainty about last Saturday... I did not intentionally snub the Watford supporters after the final whistle..." “First of all, abroad, you don’t have all your friends and family around you.
