McNeil, who missed the draw against West Ham with a knee problem, and Branthwaite, who withdrew from England duty due to a groin issue, participated in recent training sessions, signaling a likely return to action.
Dyche mentioned that McNeil had a solid week of training, while Branthwaite resumed training on Thursday. Both players’ fitness will be evaluated closer to the match.
The Toffees remain cautious as they manage injuries to Armando Broja, Seamus Coleman, and Youssef Chermiti, with gradual progress reported for each. Dyche’s side, unbeaten in six of their last seven matches, hopes to maintain momentum despite injury challenges.
