Crystal Palace vs Everton Prediction and Betting Tips for the Premier League, scheduled for Sunday, May 10, 2026, at 14:00 GMT. The match takes place at Selhurst Park in London, with Thomas Bramall appointed as referee. For deeper context, see Today's Premier League Stats.

Crystal Palace arrive after reaching the UEFA Conference League final, and Oliver Glasner has insisted his side “won’t wave the white flag.” Everton, meanwhile, still have European hopes flickering. Can David Moyes turn another spirited performance into something more practical this time?

Crystal Palace vs Everton Prediction

Under 2.5 Goals
Odds: 1.88 Confidence: Medium-High

The under angle makes sense because Crystal Palace’s home scoring profile is modest, while Everton’s away attack is not exactly built for chaos. Palace have also failed to score in several recent matches, and their emotional European week could naturally trim the rhythm. It’s not a glamorous pick, but betting isn’t always about glamour, is it? Everton are more dangerous lately, yet Moyes also spoke about late-game decisions and control, which hints at a side trying to manage matches better. Palace’s defensive structure at home is usually competitive, and Everton are missing Idrissa Gana Gueye and Jarrad Branthwaite. Add the Sunday timing after Palace’s European high, and a tight match feels very realistic.

Crystal Palace’s expected flow points toward a narrow return rather than a full attacking statement. Their home attack has lacked bite, but the presence of Daniel Muñoz, Yeremy Pino and Jean-Philippe Mateta still gives them enough penalty-box threat. Everton’s away structure is reasonably firm, so Palace may need patience, second balls and set-piece pressure to find a route through. Everton’s case for a goal is built more on momentum than domination. Thiemo Barry is expected to lead the line, while Iliman Ndiaye and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall give Moyes runners between the lines. Still, with Gueye absent and Branthwaite missing at the back, Everton may protect the result once level. A 1-1 score fits the likely tempo better than a wild shootout.

Crystal Palace vs Everton Match Preview

Crystal Palace’s season has had that slightly strange feel: flashes of structure, a few dry attacking spells, then suddenly a European run that changes the mood around the club. Glasner will want control first, especially after such a demanding week. Selhurst can lift them, but tired legs are real.

Everton look a little more ambitious under Moyes, and his comments about wanting the team to become more exciting were telling. Still, away from home, this side often leans on shape, patience and direct moments. That could make the first half more chessboard than fireworks.

The rhythm may come down to who handles transitions better. Palace should use width through wing-back areas, while Everton can target second balls and runners around Barry. Corners and cards could matter, but the bigger story is tempo: neither side will want this to become basketball.

Crystal Palace vs Everton Team News

Crystal Palace are expected to use Oliver Glasner’s 3-4-3 shape, with Dean Henderson behind a three-man defence and Daniel Muñoz offering the usual energy from the flank. Borna Sosa, Cheick Doucouré, Eddie Nketiah and Evann Guessand are unavailable, which trims some rotation after a huge European night.

Palace’s likely attacking group includes Yeremy Pino, Jørgen Strand Larsen and Ben Johnson, so Jean-Philippe Mateta and Eberechi Eze may not be central from the start. That matters, because Mateta leads the squad for goals and shots, while Eze remains one of their most creative shooting outlets when involved.

Everton should line up in a 4-2-3-1 under David Moyes. Idrissa Gana Gueye is out, while Jarrad Branthwaite also misses the trip. Tim Iroegbunam had cramp against Manchester City but Moyes suggested he is fine. Thiemo Barry may start, with Beto’s recent scoring burst keeping pressure on that decision.

David Moyes confirmed Idrissa Gueye will miss Everton’s trip to Crystal Palace, although the midfielder’s injury is not considered serious. The manager also eased concerns over Tim Iroegbunam after Monday’s draw with Manchester City, saying the youngster only suffered cramp and should be available. Moyes added that Everton want to finish the season strongly, with better performances, more goals and positive momentum.
