Two 100% records collide at Selhurst Park, with Everton hoping to record a third straight win to start a new season for the first time since 1993. Palace haven’t achieved that feat since 2006 in the Championship and will be looking to pick up only their second win over the Merseysiders in the Premier League in 12 attempts. Be warned, however: the last two meetings of these sides at Selhurst Park failed to produce a single goal. Ed Aarons
