Osman and Pienaar set to return for Everton


The Merseyside club currently have several key players on the sidelines, with Aiden McGeady and Bryan Oviedo the latest names to be added to their injury list


So the impending comeback of two of their most experienced players will come as a major boost for manager Roberto Martinez.

Both Osman and Pienaar have not featured since December, and will both be assessed ahead of the game against the Swiss club, whom they take on in the second leg of their Europa League Round of 32 tie having won 4-1 in the away match. They both played 70 minutes for the Everton U-21 side last week in a goalless draw with Manchester United.

Christian Atsu, Tony Hibbert, Aaron Lennon and John Stones are among the other notable absentees for Everton in what is the first of three games in seven days, with Premier League matches coming up against Arsenal and Stoke City.
