Leighton Baines: Visiting with Ankle Specialist

Baines will visit with a specialist after being forced off in the second half of Saturday's match against Sunderland because of an ankle injury, The Guardian reports.

Analysis:

Baines has already missed time this season with hamstring, thigh and knee issues, and with Everton out of the relegation zone and not in contention for a European spot, there could be reason to let Baines sit the remaining two games of the season. If that happens, Luke Garbutt could get back in the starting XI.
