Crystal Palace vs Everton prediction: ENGLAND: Premier League betting tips on match 2023-11-10 15:00.
Crystal Palace ended a troublesome run of just one win in seven competitive outings away at Burnley last week (2-0). They will now aim to follow up that triumph at Turf Moor by picking up three points at Selhurst Park, something they have managed just once this season (D2, L2), although just one loss in their last seven home H2Hs against Everton should hand them a psychological boost (W2, D4).
Another stat that should offer encouragement for the Eagles is that they have only lost one of their past 20 Premier League (PL) home matches against teams from outside London (W9, D10), with that one defeat coming against champions Manchester City back in March. All of this should have home fans feeling confident, but they shouldn’t expect a blockbuster given no club has scored fewer goals on their own patch in the league than Crystal Palace so far this term (four).
Throw in the fact that no English top-flight side coming into the round has failed to score on more occasions than Everton this campaign (five) and we could be set for another bore goalless draw, the result in three of the last five PL H2Hs at this venue, although it should be pointed out that Everton have not played out a 0-0 stalemate in any of their 17 PL games since April’s meeting between these two.
Besides, it’s likely that the Toffees will have ambitions to secure much more than a point in this one. Their 1-1 draw against Brighton & Hove Albion – in which they scored an unfortunate own goal late on – extended their recent record to just two defeats in eight matches across all competitions (W5, D1), while their victory last time out on the road against West Ham United has set them up to potentially win successive PL road trips for the first time since May 2021!
Key battle: Only one PL goalkeeper has a better clean sheet percentage than Palace stopper Sam Johnstone coming into this round (45.5%). Trying to beat him will be Everton’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who has netted in his two previous away PL games in London this season (Brentford and West Ham).
Hot streak: Everton manager Sean Dyche is unbeaten in his past five H2Hs against Palace’s Roy Hodgson (W3, D2) – securing a clean sheet every time.
