Match Thread Everton v Crystal Palace - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[GwladysBlue]

Please make it, Gana. Can’t bear the thought of a Schneiderlin and Davies partnership.

 

[Nymzee]

Normally hate Sunday games but glad for the days extra rest for the injured lads.

Zaha may play.

As well as Zaha, Hodgson is also sweating on the availability of Max Meyer and Alexander Sørloth through illness but confirmed that Joel Ward and Jonny Williams won’t feature after the pair picked up injuries over the past couple of weeks.

Going into more detail about his squad options, he added: “We have one player to assess in Wilf Zaha, and two others who are suffering from a virus and we don’t know quite how they’ll recover – Max Meyer and Alexander Sørloth. We lost Joel Ward on Wednesday to a muscle injury in training so he’ll definitely going be out, and we’ve lost Jonny Williams from the game against Dulwich Hamlet so he’s also out."

 

[Nymzee]

I'd accept Gana being out if Zaha can be out as well. Tit for tat.

 

[Pittsburgh Footy]

Been a tough fixture for us recently. Without that everything points to a 3-1 win.

Palace just seem to play us well at Goodison. Fearing a 2-2 draw.

 

[evertonandchelmsford]

Expecting us at the start to play the same tactics/style as we did away to Leicester only problem is Leicester were very open being the home team and Palace will be aiming to make it difficult for us. Hopefully we make an early breakthrough otherwise it could become very tricky.

I'll try to be positive and say 2-0 win. Goals from Walcott & Tosun (from the bench)

 

[blueconverse]

2-0 Sig and Richarlison.

 

[LydiateLee]

Hoping to finally see the end of Davies starting.

He needs taking out of the firing line and allowed to develop naturally. He isn't ready.

 

[Stuartisitc1878]

Bernard, Richarlison and Gomes to come off the bench and get a late goal. 3-1

 

[peteblue]

We’ll absolutely batter these....4-0......

 

[Azza]

Gomes fit is he?

 

[gonetomorrow]

We’ll absolutely batter these....4-0......

I concur. 4-0 it is.

 

[LydiateLee]

I'm going for 4-0 too

 

[BainesontoastNEW]

Gomes fit is he?

Yes, he is.

Read Everton quoting Roy as saying Zaha could well play a part in Sunday
