Crystal Palace vs Everton â Match preview and team news
Crystal Palace look to carry the momentum of their historic European run into Sundayâs Premier League clash with Everton at Selhurst Park.
The Eagles reached the Conference League final after defeating Shakhtar Donetsk on Thursday and face Rayo Vallecano later this month. Domestically, however, Glasnerâs men have struggled. Three league games without a win have dampened the mood somewhat, despite the continental heroics.

The head-to-head record heavily favours the visitors. Palace have won just one of their last 22 league meetings against Everton. Moyesâ side have also lost only twice in 16 away matches at Selhurst Park â a remarkable record at this ground.
