Andoni Iraola’s side arrive on Merseyside having conceded 15 times in the Premier League, the third-worst record in the division.

With his upcoming opponents conceding on average slightly over two goals per game after seven fixtures, Dyche was quizzed if he would look to play a more attacking lineup.

However, the former Burnley boss believed that the underlying numbers of his Toffees team suggested that their current shape was more then enough to pose problems to Cherries.

He explained: “The attacking side of things is pretty positive whoever you play, in the sense of Dom’s (Dominic Calvert-Lewin) has just got three in three, Douc (Abdoulaye Doucoure) got how ever many he did from Christmas onwards for us last season, five maybe, and a couple this season.

“That’s a pretty attacking line-up. We’ve got Dwight McNeil, we’ve got Jack Harrison. Dwight started out very strong last season, Jack did as well and he’s just coming back to true fitness.

“Them four alone are a pretty attacking line-up. Supporting that through the midfield, not as freely in the sense of goals but certainly very good players.

“I think the attacking line-up idea, if you’re implying two up front, then that’s got to work.

“You’ve got two centre-forwards who predominantly played as a one centre-forward team.

“Dom and Beto more or less play on their own up there, with the support in attacking midfield player, whether you class it as a number 10 or two eights supporting that role.

“So it is slightly different getting two centre-forwards to combine, so that does take a bit of time.

“But I think the teams we put out – I don’t like trusting in stats, but even I have to at some point.

“The xG is very, very high, it’s the highest it’s been here for eight seasons.

“We’ve got to bear that in mind, we are creating things, so it’s a pretty attacking format that we do use.”
