Everton and Crystal Palace meet in an FA Cup replay at Goodison Park on Wednesday.
A bore draw at Selhurst Park earlier this month forced both sides into action when they have otherwise enjoyed a mini-winter break from Premier League duty.
The winner on Merseyside get a relatively favourable draw against either Luton or Bolton in the fourth round, perhaps raising fresh hope of a deep run in the world’s oldest cup competition.

Everton vs Crystal Palace team news
Dominic Calvert-Lewin will be available for Everton after his controversial red card at Selhurst Park was overturned. Abdoulaye Doucoure returned from injury against Aston Villa on Sunday, so should be available again.
Palace aren’t thought to be carrying any fresh injury concerns at this stage with Jesurun Rak-Sakyi having returned to training. Michael Olise will definitely miss the game, however.
