Everton vs Crystal Palace prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - September 28, 2024
One of the fixtures in the sixth round of the Premier League will take place in Liverpool at Goodison Park, where Everton will host Crystal Palace. Here's the match preview from the Dailysports expert team.
Everton
In the past three seasons, the Toffees have been focused solely on survival in the Premier League. Last season, in addition to on-field struggles, Everton faced points deductions due to financial fair play violations. Despite this, they managed to escape relegation once again, and even upset their local rivals, Liverpool, toward the end of the season.
So far in the new campaign, Everton hasn't had much to boast about. In five Premier League matches, they have only managed to collect points in the last round, drawing 1-1 away to Leicester. Before that, they suffered defeats at home to Brighton and Bournemouth and lost away to Aston Villa and Tottenham. Everton's performance in the League Cup wasn't much better, as they were knocked out by Southampton on penalties after beating Doncaster in the previous round.
Crystal Palace
The Eagles parted ways with Roy Hodgson before the end of last season due to his health concerns and brought in Austrian manager Oliver Glasner. Palace finished the previous campaign strongly, picking up 19 points in their final seven matches.
However, this season hasn't started as positively. Palace lost their opener to Brentford 1-2, followed by a 0-2 defeat to West Ham. Before the international break, they drew 1-1 with Chelsea. In their home match against Leicester, they rescued a point by scoring a penalty in stoppage time. Most recently, Palace hosted Manchester United and secured a goalless draw.
