Things haven't gone exactly to plan for Crystal Palace so far this season. It all started fairly promisingly for the Croydon club, with 12 points taken from their first eight league games, but Roy Hodgson's side have been uninspiring ever since and find themselves hovering just above the relegation zone. Defeat to Man Utd in the Carabao Cup back in September leaves a successful FA Cup campaign as the Eagles' best chance of any glory in 2024, but Everton will have plans for a run of their own.
It's been an even more turbulent 2023 for Everton. After a rocky start, Sean Dyche's side were just starting to find some form – wins away at West Ham and Crystal Palace left them in 14th place in the table – when they were hit with a 10-point deduction for breaching the Premier League's financial rules. Without that the Toffees would be a top-half team, so while staying up will be their priority, the fact that they're also out of the Carabao Cup leaves the FA Cup as Everton's only chance of silverware.
Here's how the teams line up:
Crystal Palace XI: Henderson (GK), Clyne, Guéhi, Andersen, Mitchell, Lerma, Richards, Schlupp, Eze, Mateta, França.
Everton XI: Virginia (GK), Coleman, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko, Garner, Onana, McNeil, Harrison, Calvert-Lewin, Danjuma.
