Crystal Palace at Everton FC 5/19/22 - Premier League Picks & Predictions

In the next round of the English Premier League, Everton are set to host Crystal Palace at home at Goodison Park. 

As the season reaches its final stages, Everton still need points to avoid relegation. At this moment in time, Everton are 16th on the ladder with 36 points from 36 games. The Toffees were defeated in their most recent outing where they lost 3-2 at home against Brentford. To make matters worse, Jarrad Branthwaite and Salomón Rondón both received red cards during the loss meaning neither player will be able to play in this match against Crystal Palace. Everton will be backing their ability to make it to safety this season for they need to ensure they get points from their remaining 2 fixtures. 

On the other side of the coin, Crystal Palace appear to be safe from relegation and seem destined to finish mid-table this season. The Eagles are currently in 13th position and have 45 points from their 36 games. In their most recent match, Crystal Palace played Aston Villa away from home in a match that ended in a 1-1 draw. It was a good performance by Crystal Palace with the Eagles having the majority of the possession and taking 16 shots. Everton at Goodison Park is always a tough task but the Eagles will be backing their ability to cause the Toffees some problems in this game. 

Everton and Crystal Palace played each other earlier in the season at Selhurst Park as a part of the English Premier League. On that occasion, Crystal Palace won 3-1 at home. These two teams also met in the FA Cup where the Eagles won 4-0 at home.
