Everton vs Crystal Palace Preview

Everton meet Crystal Palace at Hill Dickinson Stadium, with kick-off set for 10:00 on Saturday 22 August.

David Moyes' Everton have strengthened their squad this summer, with right-winger Brennan Johnson arriving from Crystal Palace, while attacking midfielder Merlin Roehl, left-winger Tyrique George and defensive midfielder Hayden Hackney are also among their main additions. Left-winger Dwight McNeil has moved in the opposite direction to Palace, with defensive midfielder Idrissa Gueye, central midfielder Tyler Onyango and right-back Seamus Coleman among the other notable departures.

Everton finished 13th in the Premier League last season with 49 points from 38 matches. They ended the campaign with a 1-0 away defeat to Tottenham at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The Merseyside side had 53% possession but recorded just one shot on target.

Crystal Palace, now under new head coach Pierre Sage, have made a number of moves in the transfer market this summer, with left-winger Dwight McNeil, right-back Anan Khalaili, right-winger Zavier Gozo, right-back Oscar Mingueza and centre-back Takehiro Tomiyasu among their notable additions. Centre-back Maxence Lacroix, right-winger Brennan Johnson and right-back Danny Imray are among the players to have departed the club.

Crystal Palace, who finished 15th in the 2025/26 Premier League with 45 points from 38 matches, endured a difficult second half of the season as they balanced their European commitments with Oliver Glasner announcing that he would leave the club.

The Eagles ended their Premier League campaign with a 2-1 home defeat to Arsenal at Selhurst Park. Palace had just 39% possession and registered three shots on target, with Jean-Philippe Mateta finding the net.

Palace ended the season on a high by lifting the Europa Conference League trophy, beating Rayo Vallecano 1-0 in the final at Red Bull Arena in Leipzig.
