Everton return to action just three days after a dramatic midweek Merseyside derby, when they travel to Selhurst Park to face Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Saturday.
James Tarkowski scored a superb volley in the 98th minute to help Everton salvage a valuable point against Liverpool, ending an emotional derby at Goodison Park.
Latest Crystal Palace vs Everton squad information
Crystal Palace will be without Chadi Riad and Cheick Doucoure for the rest of the season with serious knee injuries, while Eddie Nketiah (ankle), Eberechi Eze (foot) and Ismaila Sarr (illness) are all doubtful but could return.
Adam Wharton made his first start since October against Doncaster last week, playing 60 minutes and showing he is ready to contribute more as the Premier League campaign continues.
Ben Chilwell also got 45 minutes on his Palace debut, but after a long spell out of action at Chelsea he may need more time to get back to full fitness.
Everton will be without Abdoulaye Doucoure after he was sent off for his provocative celebration in front of Liverpool fans, leading to a huge brawl after the final whistle.
Iliman Ndiaye's injury on Wednesday night was a big blow, and while there is no official word yet, early concerns suggest it could be a serious injury.
Doucoure and Ndiaye's absences will likely open up opportunities for Carlos Alcaraz and Jack Harrison, with the latter likely to make his debut. Both will provide cover for Beto, who scored his third goal in two Premier League games when he opened the scoring in the Merseyside derby.

Latest Crystal Palace vs Everton football prediction
Everton and David Moyes may need more than two days to recover from the chaotic moments at Goodison Park on Wednesday night, in one of the most dramatic finishes in European football this season.
James Tarkowski's superb goal in the 98th minute sent the Gwladys Street stand into a frenzy, with fans spilling onto the pitch in celebration. The frenzied scenes continued after VAR confirmed the goal was a valid one.
As the emotions settle, Everton may realise that the draw has moved them one step closer to survival, as they are now 10 points clear of the relegation zone.
Under Moyes, Everton produced an excellent defensive display, limiting Liverpool to a season-low xG of 0.64 and allowing just six shots – the lowest number the Reds have had in a single game this season. It was clear evidence of the team’s improvement under Moyes.
Everton have taken 10 points from a possible 15 since Moyes returned, and now they face a team they have had a good run against recently – Crystal Palace.
Despite failing to win in their last seven away trips to London, Everton's last away win came against Palace in November 2023. That was also the last time they had consecutive away wins.
Moyes has won his only away game since returning to Everton, beating Brighton last month. A win would see the Toffees leapfrog both Manchester United and Tottenham and level on points with Palace.
Everton are unbeaten in their last eight meetings with Palace, including all four last season, including one in the FA Cup third round. A 2-1 win at Goodison earlier in the season, courtesy of a Dwight McNeil brace, extended Palace’s poor run in this fixture – winning just two of their last 23 meetings. However, Everton have not won both legs of a league game against Palace in a season since Moyes’ first spell in charge in 2004-05.
On Crystal Palace's side, Oliver Glasner's team is in good form and full of confidence ahead of this match.
After winning just three of their opening 18 games of the season, Palace have won four of their last six and kept five clean sheets in their last six in all competitions.
However, Palace's chances of qualifying for Europe remain slim, even if England are awarded an extra place by UEFA. They currently sit 12th, seven points behind eighth-placed Aston Villa.
Palace continued their good away form by beating Doncaster 2-0 in the FA Cup fourth round, setting up a London derby with Millwall in the next round. However, home form at Selhurst Park in 2025 has been inconsistent.
This will be Palace's third home game of the new year, and they are still without a win, after drawing with Chelsea and losing to Brentford.
