Everton – Crystal Palace, Premier League Predictions

Everton is finally performing as expected. We expect some draws to come out as wins soon. The last 2 losses of the team were from Man City and Liverpool in early December. Everton has not lost at home for two and a half months. Fans are still dreaming of a battle for the top 4. Exactly such matches for Palace can be decisive for such a thing. Ancelotti manages to make the most of the major players at the moment and this gives more confidence to other players because they feel calm.

Palace are in their second worst period of the season. With no wins in their last 5 games and only 3 points in them, the Eagles have slipped to 14th place, but are still relatively far from the relegation zone. Hodgson decided not to attract any players in the winter. The attack of the team is bad at the moment. Strong strikers are not productive enough. Zaha and Ayew don’t score. There are injuries in the defense and the 2 central defenders often change.

 Expert view : We think Everton will take the win, but this is not so sure. We will be more goal-oriented because the Toffees know how to counteract teams like Palace and we doubt that they will score a goal, and Palace will play defensively, most likely, so that is why Everton themselves should not score so much in this match. The first game, played by both teams, early in the season, finished 0-0, just like the one before it. Prediction – Under 2.5 goals at 1.75.

6 of Everton’s last 8 home games have finished with under 2.5 goals
