Peterborough trip is potential banana skin - Davies
Simon Davies insists Everton will take nothing for granted against his old side Peterborough in the Carling Cup tonight.
Davies, 26, knows from experience that Everton cannot expect a walkover at London Road despite being on an impressive unbeaten run in the Premiership.
'It's not going to be easy,' said Davies.
'When the cup games come around, they come out in force and pack the place out. It's important that we impose ourselves early on and try to kill the game off.
'We are on a good run but the manager has kept our feet on the ground and, although we know we are all in good form, we are just taking things one step at a time.
'Everyone in the squad is pushing each other and, as players, we expect that from each other.'
Davies has been a frustrated bystander during Everton's impressive start to the season and the Wales midfielder is determined to prove a point when he returns to the club where he began his career.
His youthful talent was spotted by Barry Fry - who has just stepped down after a spell as chairman to continue as director of football - and Davies is almost certain to play a part against his old mentor this evening.
Manager David Moyes is expected to give a chance to several players who have been out of the first-team picture, including Davies, Andy van der Meyde, David Weir and goalkeeper Richard Wright.
Lee Carsley, who was substituted in the 2-2 draw against Wigan following a knock to his ribs, has recovered and will travel, but James McFadden and Alan Stubbs are still injured.
Everton , Bolton , Wigan One Of Them are potential loser of the carling cup 1st round as it is a away game , they might not used to the low amount of audience and the field -

Angel: Cup best Euro route for Villa
tribalfooball.com - September 22, 2006
Aston Villa striker Juan Pablo Angel has backed manager Martin O'Neill's decision to play a full-strength team in the Carling Cup this season.
"This is the best route into Europe and the manager wants us to take this competition very seriously," said Angel.
"I have four goals now this season - so far, so good. There is still a long way to go, but I am really pleased with the way things are going for me and for the team.
"We are still unbeaten and I'm delighted. I had a fantastic run in this competition a couple of seasons ago."
