Everton vs Crystal Palace LIVE: Premier League latest score, goals and updates from fixture
Follow all the action from Goodison Park
Follow live coverage as Everton face Crystal Palace today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Manchester City look to make it an unprecedented five titles in a row come the end of 2024/25.
The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool will be chasing Pep Guardiola's side, but just as fascinating will be the race for Champions League places, with more teams than ever before having designs on top-four finishes. Chelsea remain big-spending, Manchester United's latest rebuild continues and both Tottenham and Newcastle will expect improvements this year - yet it was Aston Villa who snared fourth last term.
Meanwhile, it's Southampton, Leicester City and Ipswich Town who made it back to the elite after promotion last year and each will have hope they can make it more than a one-year stay. Follow the latest live action from the Premier League below:

The players are in the tunnel as Palace go through their final preparations ahead of their first Premier League game to take place outside of London so far this season. Everton, desperate for a win, will have slight confidence here today. After winning four of their first six Premier League away games against Everton (L2), Palace are actually winless in their last nine visits to Goodison Park in the competition (D4 L5).
