Everton kick off their 2026-27 Premier League campaign at home to Crystal Palace at Hill Dickinson Stadium, with kick-off at 3pm. The Blues are aiming for a strong start after last season ended with defeats to Sunderland and Tottenham Hotspur that ended their hopes of European qualification.
Team News and Possible Debuts
Summer signings Hayden Hackney and Brennan Johnson could make their debuts. Johnson, if selected, will face the club he left earlier this month in a deal that saw Dwight McNeil move to Crystal Palace.
David Moyes remains in charge of Everton and will hope his side can beat the Eagles again. Crystal Palace have a new manager, with Pierre Sage replacing Oliver Glasner, who won the UEFA Conference League and FA Cup.
Coverage and Odds
Joe Thomas and Chris Beesley are at Hill Dickinson Stadium providing build-up, team news, in-game commentary and post-match reaction.
Bet365 make Everton 11/10 favourites, with Crystal Palace at 11/5 and the draw at 12/5.
