Everton Vs Palace Preview
Last season, Everton were on track to defy the Premier League odds and clinch a European berth. However, a seven-game winless run at the end of the campaign paid end to those hopes with the Merseysiders eventually languishing to 13th.
Still on a high after Crystal Palace won the Conference League last term, supporters will be hoping that the Pierre Sage era gets off to a winning start at the Hill Dickinson Stadium. Palace have kept hold of star players Adam Wharton and Ismaila Sarr but have waved goodbye to towering defender Maxence Lacroix.

Since Crystal Palace were promoted back to the top-flight in 2013, the Eagles have suffered in this fixture and we are predicting that trend to continue on Saturday. Even if Everton have lost their last four Premier League openers, the recent H2H record coupled with home advantage should be enough to see the points stay on Merseyside.
