Everton Team News:

Everton will need James McCarthy (hip) to come through a fitness test if he’s going to make this after missing the League Cup win over Middlesbrough last week.

Leighton Baines (ankle surgery) is being ‘eased back him gently’ so wouldn’t be likely to start, he should be in the squad though.

Player to watch: Romelu Lukaku

Palace Team News:

Pardew’s missing Wilfried Zaha (suspension) after he picked up his fifth booking of the season so this opens the door to someone else!

Bakary Sako (hamstring) will also sit out as well but Dwight Gayle and Marouane Chamakh will both be travelling with the squad.

Player to watch: Yannick Bolasie
