Everton ended a run of three straight defeats by beating Crystal Palace 3-0 at Goodison Park. Dominic Calvert-Lewin's return from injury is a huge boost for Frank Lampard's men and the England international showed quick feet to fire home his first goal of the season early on. Anthony Gordon then tapped in the second just after the hour mark before Dwight McNeil rounded off the scoring six minutes from time.
Victory lifts the Toffees above Palace on goal difference into 11th. Manchester United have the chance to leapfrog Chelsea into the top four when the sides face off later in Saturday's marquee game.
