Hello and welcome to LIVE updates of the Premier League clash between Arsenal and Everton at Emirates Stadium. Kick off 16:30 GMT.

STAT: Everton have lost their last five league visits to Arsenal and are winless in 23 Premier League away fixtures against Arsenal (D4, L19).

Calvert-Lewin is absolutely flying under Carlo's leadership.

Everton counter at speed. The ball's fed to Iwobi on the charge but his first-time drive strike from the right fizzes just wide of the far upright.

VIDEO: Calvert-Lewin's opener.

Aubameyang rampages free down the left and into the box, but sees his attempted cross diverted behind. The Gunners keep the pressure on with a flurry of corners, but Everton stand firm. A good response from the hosts though.

Pepe jinks in from the right and tees up Bellerin who rifles over the top from 20 yards. Arsenal looking to shrug off the early body blow dealt to them.

Some stat that.

Indeed.

Woeful defending from Arsenal - but WHAT a finish from DCL.

GOAL! Calvert-Lewin gets the visitors off to flyer. Luiz fails to deal with a right-wing free kick and the Blues forward acrobatically flashes a wonderful finish past Leno.

KICK OFF! Everton get us underway.

Some words from Mr Ancelotti on the return of Andre Gomes. Could he return from that horrific injury sustained at home to Spurs in early November as a sub today? We will see.

Alex Iwobi spoke to Everton's official website about taking on his old club: “Arsenal is where I grew up and I want to show them what they produced was good and what they are missing. I am feeling very sharp, very good in myself and confident: excited and always wanting to get on the ball. I would like to go and prove a point – but I want to prove a point whoever I am playing."

Mikel Arteta has been full of praise for Bukayo Saka recently - but the 18-year-old must make do with a place on the bench today. Arteta has suggested physical issues and the need for fresh legs are behind the changes for this clash. Here's what he previously had to say on Saka, whose nine assists in all competitions this season are more than any other Arsenal player: "He's a great kid and he's very brave. He makes big decisions in the final third, he doesn't hide and he's got the vision and the ability to execute in spaces that are really tight, which is a big gift."

Dani Ceballos spoke to Arsenal.com ahead of the contest: We have to be realistic. We’re a long way off the Premier League leaders but our aim is to take it game by game and improve. We’ve got a new coach and we’re still alive in three competitions – the FA Cup and the Europa League too. I think we need to keep gelling and focus on playing attractive football that the fans enjoy. But the most important thing is to win and, as you’ve learned from my story, I’m willing to do whatever it takes to get the three points."

Carlo Ancelotti: "We have to be focused on Arsenal. Then there are very important games after. There's (Man) United, Chelsea, Liverpool. After these four games, we can see what is going on for Europe. This is a really important game against a strong team, away, but we have to have confidence to do our best and try to win."

Elsewhere this afternoon, Manchester United and Wolves have bolstered their respective Euro hopes with routine victories. As we build up to this one, why not catch up on the latest gossip from the continent, which again links one of Man United's stars with a move away from Old Trafford.

There are also plenty of changes for Arsenal. Mikel Arteta makes six from the 1-0 Europa League success at Olympiakos. Hector Bellerin, Sead Kolasinac, Dani Ceballos, Mesut Ozil, Nicolas Pepe and Eddie Nketiah all come in. Interestingly, Bukayo Saka, who has been earning rave reviews, is dropped to the bench.
