Everton vs Crystal Palace Prediction: Eagles to soar again

Crystal Palace will look to maintain their 19-game unbeaten streak across all competitions when they travel to Everton on Sunday (14:00 BST, Sky Sports Premier League) in the Premier League. The Eagles have won their previous two appearances in the top flight as they head to Merseyside, beating the Toffees' rivals Liverpool last weekend.
The hosts were held to a 1-1 draw at home to West Ham United on Monday. Read on for my Everton vs Crystal Palace predictions, supported by the latest team news and match odds.

Team News
Everton are having to cope without the influential Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, who misses out through a one-game suspension after picking up his fifth yellow card of the campaign against West Ham last time out.
Boss David Moyes may consider moving Jack Grealish from the left into the number 10 role and promoting one of Tyler Dibling or Dwight McNeil to the XI.
Jarrad Branthwaite (hamstring) and Merlin Rohl (hip) are unavailable due to injury.
For Palace, Chadi Riad and Cheick Doucoure are both still nursing knee issues, while Caleb Kporha (back) and Walter Benitez (hand) are also sidelined.
Palace boss Oliver Glasner didn't make too many alterations to his side as they won 2-0 at Dynamo Kyiv in the Uefa Conference League, but Tyrick Mitchell and Ismaila Sarr are expected to be restored to the starting lineup at the expense of Borna Sosa and Will Hughes respectively.
After recording two assists in Europe, Yeremy Pino will be hoping he can start to make an impact in the Premier League.

Everton vs Crystal Palace Odds
Everton are unbeaten at home in the top flight but they have won just once here. They are 8/5 to come out on top on Sunday.
The Toffees have experienced two draws at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, and the stalemate is valued at 11/5. Palace have also drawn three of their six league games this term.
The Eagles are 15/8 (implied probability of 34.8%) to collect the three points, which they have achieved in two of their three away fixtures in the top flight in 2025/26.
Under 2.5 goals has been a winning selection in Everton's past four outings in the Premier League and it is available at 4/6 on Sunday.
Everton vs Crystal Palace Stats
- Crystal Palace have won three of their last four league matches
- Daniel Munoz (CRY) has been booked twice in the PL this term
Crystal Palace to win @ 15/8
Palace are one of the most in-form sides across Europe and it seems like there is more magic to come from them this season after last year's FA Cup success. Glasner has completely transformed this club into a real force in the Premier League and they need to do everything in their power to secure his future.
Everton will be a tough place to go for the south London outfit, as the Toffees are yet to be beaten in the league at their new stadium. However, this is also going to be the hosts' toughest home test of the campaign so far, given Palace's outstanding unbeaten run.
The visitors head to Merseyside with three wins in their last four in the top flight and they have come away with the three points in two of their three road trips in the league thus far.
The team is well-drilled and full of quality. It may be a gruelling battle with this stubborn home side, but I am expecting Palace's attacking talent to shine through and put another win on the board. The Eagles are well and truly soaring.

Daniel Munoz to receive a card @ 9/4
It remains to be seen if Grealish will continue on the left or be placed in the middle on Sunday, but if he remains in his current position, it creates a tough battle for Palace wing-back Daniel Munoz.
The Colombian has been a reliable operator for the Eagles in this position, providing a stellar service in both boxes, but he faces a difficult challenge against the English attacker, who has been fouled a league-high 22 times so far this season in the top flight.
Grealish has a talent for winning fouls and also for getting opposition players into the book. In each of his last four appearances across all competitions, the Manchester City loanee has won four fouls which led to bookings, and I can see this trend continuing on Sunday.
Munoz has been booked twice already this campaign, and I sense a third will be picked up here.
