Storm Amy has hit Merseyside with a yellow weather warning in place.
Everton have confirmed that Sunday’s Premier League fixture against Crystal Palace is still set to go ahead amid Storm Amy.
The adverse weather conditions on Merseyside have meant that parts of Hill Dickinson Stadium have been closed today ahead of the game. The Everton Way and the Originals Fan Wall are shut to visitors today for safety reasons. The Met Office have issued a yellow weather warning for wind in place. Gusts of around 50mph are hitting the region.

A post from the account @EvertonStadium on X said: “We can advise that due to Storm Amy, and the severe weather currently affecting the region, Everton Way and the Originals Fan Wall at Hill Dickinson Stadium have been closed to visitors in the interests of safety. The closure will not impact preparations for tomorrow’s Premier League fixture.”
