MATCH PREVIEWEverton and Crystal Palace Set for Cautious Premier League Opener at Hill Dickinson StadiumEverton begin at home with the early table and historical meetings offering encouragement, but neither side has competitive form to provide a reliable performance measure. Team news gives Everton several midfield absences and leaves D. Henderson’s Palace involvement uncertain, making the confirmed lineups especially important before kick-off.MATCH REPORTEverton Begin Premier League Campaign with Convincing 2-0 Victory over Crystal PalaceEverton defeated Crystal Palace 2-0 after Dewsbury-Hall opened the scoring late in the first half and Barry added a second shortly after the restart. Palace had more possession and the higher expected-goals figure, but Everton created more shots, defended effectively and converted the moments that decided the match.
