The Danish winger joined Everton on loan from Napoli with an option to buy on July 26 and made his first start in the match on August 3.
Jake O’Brien, Everton’s other new signing from Lyon in a £16.4 million deal on August 30, was listed among the substitutes.
Lindstrom will be eager to impress Everton fans after a challenging season in Serie A with Napoli.
At Goodison Park, the 24-year-old has a chance to shine due to the limited depth on the wing, with Dwight McNeil and Jack Harrison—back on loan from Leeds United—being his main competition.
Everton supporters are excited to see Lindstrom’s performance in a competitive fixture as Preston begins their Championship campaign against Sheffield United on August 9.
This game will also provide manager Sean Dyche with a valuable gauge of his squad’s readiness for the upcoming Premier League season.
Lindstrom, in particular, will be a focus for fans who hope he can bring much-needed creativity to Everton’s attack.
