Everton vs Crystal Palace predictions: Chris Sutton on Premier League game

This should be a good game, and a real test of whether Everton’s new ground is actually the ‘fortress’ my 606 co-host Roman Kemp describes it as.
Everton are still unbeaten there but they have drawn two out of three games so far and the handbrake is still on, isn’t it? Maybe Roman’s definition of a fortress is just different to most other people’s.
There will be no gung-ho tactics here, either, because this is going to be a really tight affair between two very clever managers. But after watching Palace last week I have to back them really.
Oliver Glasner’s side were quite direct against Liverpool and it will be a good battle if they do the same here.
I enjoy watching Everton and, in particular, Jack Grealish, but I worry about their firepower up front.
If they had a goalscorer I would probably say they would get something, but instead I am going with Palace to keep a clean sheet and to take home the points.
Sutton’s prediction: 0-1
