Jimmy Phillips side are rooted to the bottom of the league and have lost five out of the last six matches including a five nil humaliation against Manchester United just before Christmas in a game which also saw Ivan Campo dismissed.

Phillips is able to call upon Robert Sissons and Jarostaw Fojut just a few days after they made their first team debut's as late substitutes in the FA Cup win at Watford.

Teenage forwards Bedi Buval and James Sinclair where also on the seniors bench at Vicarage Road but did not manage to get on the field of play during the ninety minutes.

Away at Everton is always a difficult fixture for the second string but a win in tonight's game at Southport's ground would boost morale and confidence going into a busy month.

The Toffees reserve boss Andy Holden is able to call on the experience of internationals Lee Carsley and Gary Naysmith as both look to come back after long term injury problems.

In the case of Republic of Ireland midfielder Carsley the knee problems first started when he was stretchered off in the final Premiership game of last season against the Wanderers.

Chinese midfielder Li Tie and Scottish goalkeeper Iain Turner are also involved for the Merseysiders.
