Everton vs Crystal Palace news: Can Toffees secure Premier League safety?
Frank Lampard's men know victory over the mid-table Eagles will ensure they are playing Premier League football again next season.
Like this season, Everton had their fate in their own hands that day yet failed to beat Coventry. They stayed up nonetheless, at Bolton's expense.
Palace have less to play for, although doubtless Patrick Vieira will be pushing his side on in a bid to secure a top-half finish and the club's highest-ever Premier League points tally.

Everton and Crystal Palace players in form
For Palace, Wilfried Zaha is doing his best to solve Palace's goalscoring problems - he has five in his last nine games in all competitions, moving onto 14 for the season.
In midfield, Conor Gallagher may not be hitting his early-season heights but he's still been a very consistent performer, while at the back Marc Guehi and Tyrick Mitchell continue to show why England honours have come their way this season.
