Prediction: 1-0
Crystal Palace
Goodison Park will host Wednesday’s FA Cup replay between Everton and Crystal Palace, the two Premier League sides. The Toffees failed to win the previous six games in all competitions, but the midweek clash could be the turning point for Sean Dyche’s charges. Important midfielder Idrissa Gana Gueye is on international duty, while both Ashley Young and Dele Alli are sidelined with injuries.
Unlike Everton, who shared the spoils with Aston Villa, the Eagles were not in action in the Premier League at the weekend. All Joel Ward, Rob Holding, Cheick Doucoure, and Jesurun Rak-Sakyi remain in the recovery room, while goalkeeper Sam Johnstone is unlikely to be risked. Anyhow, home win should be considered as Everton defeated the likes of Newcastle and Chelsea at Goodison Park last month. You should know that in their last meeting at the venue Everton defeated Crystal Palace 3-0.
Highlighted Player (Eberechi Eze):
Eberechi Eze is a talented football player who was born in Greenwich, England on June 29, 1998. Eze started his youth career at Millwall and in the summer of 2016 he moved to Queens Park Rangers, signing a one-year contract with the capital club.
Eze scored 4 goals in 42 appearances for the Hoops in the 2018/2019 Championship campaign, while providing 4 assists for his teammates.His main position is attacking midfield, but he is capable of playing as both right and left midfielder as well. Eze is a footballer of Nigerian descent, but he has yet to make his debut for the Super Eagles in international matches.
Given his place of birth, the 173-cm tall midfielder was eligible to play for the England U20 team and he made his debut for the Three Lions on October 11, 2018 in a 2-1 victory over Italy. His preferred foot is right.
