  • Prediction

    Everton claimed their first point of the season at Leicester last time out. That they managed to get off the mark at the King Power Stadium is a morale boost for the Toffees.

    Like Everton, Crystal Palace are yet to win a league match this season but come into Saturday's game unbeaten in five. The Eagles, though, have failed to win in 10 at Goodison Park.

    With both teams struggling, the spoils may be shared this weekend.
