Everton welcome Crystal Palace to the Hill Dickinson Stadium this weekend.
David Moyes’ side are up against third-placed Crystal Palace on Sunday afternoon, so it will be a really tricky game.
Palace have been the surprise package this term, as they’re the only undefeated team in the Premier League.
Everton, meanwhile, are winless in three, so they’ll have to be at their very best to get back into the win column.
Ahead of the clash, here are three bold predictions that could happen.

Thierno Barry finally gets his first goal
Thierno Barry is expected to make only his second league start of the season against Palace, with Beto dropping out after an underwhelming performance on Monday.
Barry will finally get off the mark and score his first goal for the club, and it will give him real belief going forward.
Unfortunately, though, the 22-year-old will have to restart that momentum after the two-week international break.

Iliman Ndiaye stars in new position
With Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall suspended, Moyes could decide to move Iliman Ndiaye into the number 10 role.
For most of his career, Ndiaye has operated in a central position, but since joining Everton, he’s been used as a wide player.
The 25-year-old will produce a masterclass in his new role, and it’ll be really difficult for Moyes to move him back out on the flank.
Tyler Dibling also gets first goal for the club
It’ll be a super day for the summer signings, as Tyler Dibling will score on his full Premier League debut for the club.
With Ndiaye moving centrally, Dibling will finally get his first league start and will take his opportunity with both hands.
The 19-year-old has had flashes in his cameo appearances so far this term, and against Palace, he’ll round off one of his mazy runs with a neat finish.
Hopefully, the catalyst for a good run in the team.
