Everton manager Roberto Martinez has confirmed that Tim Howard will return for the Toffees in tomorrow night's game against Premier League leaders Chelsea.
The American goalkeeper hasn't played since Boxing Day because of a calf strain, with Joel Robles filling in since.
His injury has kept him out of eight games and means that he will not play at least 36 league games in a season for the first time since joining Everton from Manchester United in 2006.
Martinez will be without Aiden McGeady for the trip to Stamford Bridge, while left-back Leighton Baines will have to pass a late fitness test after missing Saturday's goalless Merseyside derby against Liverpool.
