Patrick van Aanholt also stays down and requires treatment. Looks like he can continue however.

Zaha picks the ball up about 25 yards out and moves into space. He then drills a pretty poor effort well wide of the far post. He then has a moan about something in the direction of a team-mate.

They haven't needed to!

Can Everton make this pressure count? They are well on top at the moment.

DOUBLE SAVE! Game is really opening up now and Everton should be in front. Gomes wins the ball in midfield, threads it though for Richarlison, who checks onto his right foot, but is denied by Guaita, before the Palace stopper gets up to smother the rebound at the Everton forward's feet.

DOUBLE CHANCE! Long ball over the top catches Palace out, Dominic Calvert-Lewin is clean through, but Vicente Guaita does well to race from his line to block, before the ball comes back in, and Richarlison heads over from a good position.

SAVE! Lovely one-two between Eberechi Eze and Ayew, the former then rifles a powerful strike for goal, but Robin Olsen gets down well to make a smart save.
18'
Scrappy game as Everton commit more fouls.
16'
Jordan Ayew carries the ball down the right, but Richarlison makes the foul.
14'
Palace growing into this more and more. Everton on the back foot.
12'
Nice switch of play from James to Digne, who has lots of room. He clips a cross into the middle but Guaita is there to claim.
10'
Palace look a real threat on the counter attack every time they get on the ball.
8'
Waste from Everton. Andre Gomes does well to win the ball off Luka Milivojevic, but he elects to pass to Richarlison, who is well offside.
6'
Nice swift break from Palace, but Zaha's powerful strike is blocked.
4'
All Everton possession so far here. Not doing much with it.
2'
Joel Ward fortunate there to avoid an early yellow card for putting his arm across Lucas Digne.

KICK OFF! We are up and running here at Goodison.

So here we go. This is a shoo-in for Champions League chasing Everton, right? No. Everton have lost seven of their last 11 Premier League home games (W3 D1), having lost just one of their 15 previously (W7 D7). Their seven home league defeats this season is their most in a single Premier League campaign since 2015-16 (8). We are minutes away!

With little else to play for, Palace will be looking to shore up their backline on the road. Palace have kept just one clean sheet in their last 18 Premier League away games (W5 D2 L11), with that coming in a goalless draw at Arsenal in January. Only Sheffield United (0) have kept fewer clean sheets on the road than the Eagles this season.

Ahead of kick off, catch up with all the latest transfer talk from across Europe as Neymar and Lionel Messi could be set for a reunion.
