Everton vs Crystal Palace Prediction

Everton Form

It could have been better, it could have been worse for Everton, who have two draws to show from their last three matches. They came up short in a 3-2 defeat against Aston Villa, followed by a 1-1 draw against Southampton. They recorded yet another one in the latest round after a 1-1 match with Leicester. Everton managed a strong return of four wins from their previous six matches on home soil in the Premier League. They drew none though, while losing twice in this series. They scored eight goals and conceded six times.

In a season where everything runs absolutely smoothly Crystal Palace might be able to surprise. However, a finish inside the top half of the Premier League looks the most realistic scenario.

Crystal Palace Form

Crystal Palace go into their upcoming match unbeaten in their previous three matches, which started off with a 2-2 draw against Leicester. They went on to beat Queens Park Rangers by 1-2, before sharing the spoils with Manchester United in a 0-0 draw. In their last six away matches in the Premier League, Crystal Palace won twice, while also recording two draws. They endured two defeats in this run, with a scoreline from these matches saying six goals conceded and seven scored.

Last season, The Eagles found themselves comfortably in the middle of the table, and they are expected to maintain that level of performance when the new season begins.

Both Everton and Crystal Palace seem a little too focused on not losing than actually chasing a win, and as such, the draw is a tasty value bet from our perspective.

Everton claimed zero wins, one draw as well as four defeats in the Premier League this season. Crystal Palace are yet to win this season, having played five games, in stead showing off three draws and two defeats.
