Something about Merseyside brings the best out of Crystal Palace. The only team to have beaten Jürgen Klopp at Anfield this season have won their last two visits to Goodison Park 3-2 and confidence will not be an issue after their 5-1 trouncing of Newcastle United last weekend. Everton, who will give a late fitness test to James McCarthy, may have advanced into the Capital One Cup semi-finals in midweek but the two points dropped at Bournemouth still hurt Roberto Martínez. His team need a response. Andy Hunter
