Did you know?

Everton are unbeaten in 10 Premier League away matches against Crystal Palace (D5 L5), since a 1-0 defeat in October 1994. In their top-flight history, only against Preston (11 between 1897 and 1911) and Liverpool (15 between 1899 and 1914) have they had longer unbeaten away runs. 

Following a seven-match unbeaten run, Crystal Palace have lost their last three Premier League contests. They last lost more consecutively in June/July 2020 (seven). 

All four of Wilfried Zaha’s Premier League goals for Crystal Palace this season have been the opening goal of the match, with three of those ending up being the matchwinning strike. The Ivorian has scored just once in his 11 Premier League appearances against Everton, and has never been on the winning side versus the Toffees. 

Everton have failed to score in their last six Premier League encounters played on Sundays, since a 1-0 win at West Ham in May. It’s the longest run the Toffees have had without a goal on a specific day of the week in the competition, while no side has ever failed to score in seven consecutive Premier League Sunday matches.
