Everton face Crystal Palace for their Premier League opener on Merseyside this afternoon.

Both sides will be looking to kick-off their campaigns in a positive manner, despite having underwhelming summers in the transfer market so far.

The pair were involved in a swap deal that saw Brennan Johnson head to the Hill Dickinson Stadium, and Dwight McNeil go the other way to South London.

Both could feature for their new clubs today, in what should prove to be an evenly contested match.
