What time and TV channel is Everton v Sligo Rovers in pre-season action?
Seamus Coleman returns to Sligo for the first time since he moved to Everton in 2009
Sligo Rovers will play Everton in an interesting friendly fixture in the Showgrounds this afternoon.
The pre-season tie will see Everton captain and Republic of Ireland stalwart Seamus Coleman return to the place where he began his sensational career. The Donegal native has racked up over 350 Premier League appearances for The Toffees but owes his career to his beginnings at Sligo. Coleman played 56 times for The 'Bit O'Red' before earning a £60,000 move to Merseyside in 2009, a figure that has been perceived as one of the best value-for-money signings in Premier League history.
Everton will begin their pre-season preparations with this encounter. Sean Dyche's men avoided the drop once again last year, considering the points deduction that was levied against them, finishing 15th in May.
Sligo have beaten Shamrock Rovers, Derry City, and Bohemians in their last three league encounters, but face a tall test against the Merseyside outfit this evening in a friendly competition.
