The Toffees are fighting to avoid relegation. A visit from a depleted and defensively-challenged Crystal Palace squad is exactly what they need.

Palace is missing a number of key pieces. Cheick Doucoure (Achilles), Rob Holding (ankle), Michael Olise (thigh) and Jesurun Rak-Sakyi (thigh) are all out. Marc Guehi (knee) and Eberechi Eze (thigh) are likely also be out. Will Hughes (ankle) is questionable and less than 100%.

Everton is missing a couple of players but is mostly getting healthy. Importantly, Abdoulaye Doucoure is back and expected to start, as are Seamus Coleman and Amadou Onana.

The Toffees won 3-2 at Crystal Palace and 3-0 the last h2h match at Goodison Park. They win again this afternoon!
