Everton team news confirmed for Crystal Palace as Richarlison hands Blues massive boost

Richarlison has been passed fit to face Crystal Palace today as Everton name an unchanged side for the game at Selhurst Park.

The Brazilian forward was described as a "major doubt" by manager Marco Silva on Thursday because of a rib injury but after coming through a session yesterday morning, he was given the green light to travel to south London.

Theo Walcott , the other concern due to illness, has travelled and is named on the bench.

Jordan Pickford remains in goal with Seamus Coleman, Michael Keane, Kurt Zouma and Lucas Digne making up the defence.

Idrissa Gueye is once again partnered by Morgan Schneiderlin because of Andre Gomes' suspension.

Richarlison plays on the right, Gylfi Sigurdsson stays at No10 with Bernard on the left, and all play in support of Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
