One of the most important matches in the Premier League this weekend will take place on Monday, as Everton and Crystal Palace collide at Goodison Park. The sides are separated by just five points in the battle to avoid the drop, with the Toffees currently sitting in the bottom three.
A massive six-pointer in the Premier League will take place on Monday. All the pressure will be on Everton, as their long stay in the top-flight looks increasingly in danger at this stage. The Toffees currently sit 18th in the standings, and they have suffered two defeats in their last five matches. However, they haven’t won over the same period of matches in the competition.
In fact, Everton’s last win in the Premier League was in the middle of December against Burnley. Since then, they have gone seven without a victory. A challenging run of matches in the competition continued last weekend, as the Toffees defended well for long periods before eventually falling to a 2-0 away loss against Manchester City.
The pressure is also mounting on Roy Hodgson coming into this round of matches, as there are growing calls from fans for a change in management. Palace sit 15th in the table, but they have recorded just six wins all season. Two of their wins have been recorded in their last five, but they have also suffered three losses over that period.
A second defeat on the bounce was suffered by Palace last weekend, as they threw away a 1-0 lead before losing 3-1 at home against Chelsea. Scoring goals has been a continued issue for the Eagles throughout 2023-24, as they have netted just 27 times, meaning only the bottom three have scored fewer.
Everton have a strong record against Palace in recent years after winning three of the last five matches across all competitions. The Toffees have already recorded a win against the Eagles this term after claiming a 1-0 success in the FA Cup in January. Palace haven’t won away from home against Everton since September 2014.
This could be the weekend when Palace get sucked into the relegation scrap, as we will be siding with Everton landing a second straight win against the Eagles in the Premier League.
