Alan Pardew: "I think Cheick Tiote will be back soon. He was sorely missed. That was a Cheick game against Villa.
"He would have been in and around a few of those Villa boys, and it will be nice to see him back in a black and white shirt for Everton.
"We are expecting him to be in and around it for the Everton game, we really are. We have to work hard on him, but I am hoping, fingers crossed, that we can get him right for that."
