Comments:

League position: 3rd Belgian international Romelu Lukaku had now scored four goals in his last five Premier League appearances against Crystal Palace. Had Everton won this game, it would have equalled their best-ever seven-game start to a Premier League season (16 points in 2004-05). This was manager Ronald Koeman's 100th competitive game in charge in English club football (won 49 and lost 32).

Comments:

League position: 7th Belgian international Christian Benteke had now scored five goals in six Premier League appearances against Everton. Crystal Palace had now taken 11 points from their last five Premier League games; one point less than their preceding 21 games in 2016. This was Damien Delaney's 600th appearance in English club football.
