Crystal Palace vs Everton prediction
Crystal Palace's Premier League form has unsurprisingly taken a hit in recent weeks, with their focus predominantly being on reaching their first European final.
That goal has now been achieved, with the Seagulls completing a 5-2 aggregate victory over Shakhtar Donetsk in the UEFA Conference League on Thursday, winning 2-1 at Selhurst Park on the night.
With the final just under three weeks away, Oliver Glasner's side can now focus on mathematically securing their Premier League survival, although there are likely to be some tired legs in the squad right now.
That could open the door for an Everton side who recently held title-chasing Man City to a 3-3 draw, although they were mere moments away from victory in that contest.
With European aspirations of their own, the Toffees will be up for this, and having scored at least twice in three of their last five Premier League games, it would be no surprise to see them cause Palace problems here.
