Everton goalkeeper has spoken about the dressing room mentality ahead of Monday night’s fixture.

The Toffees welcome Oilver Galsner’s in-form side to Hill Dickinson as we look to regain some momentum.

Palace meanwhile will be looking to extend their impressive run, with the Croydon club currently third in the league.

However, Pickford insists the Blues ‘can’t be worried’ about Palace’s form ahead of the game.

“Palace are on a great run,” Pickford said. “I think it is something like 18 games. But it’s one of them, it’s about us again. It’s about what we can control.

“We can’t be worried about Palace, even though we know they are a great side. No side is rubbish in the Premier League.

“We know they’re a great side and they won the FA Cup and are coming off the back of a great result against Liverpool at the weekend.

He continued: “Everyone’s got to train well. Everyone’s got to be fighting for positions, that’s what successful teams become.

“Show a bit of disappointment [after West Ham], but when you get the opportunity, go and grab it and be the difference for us.”

PALACE WILL POSE A TOUGH TEST FOR MOYES’ SIDE

Everton will be without midfield metronome Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall for Sunday’s game.

The 27-year-old is suspended after picking up his fifth booking of the season in the 1-1 draw against West Ham.

There’s no doubt that the midfielder’s fourth and fifth bookings weren’t even infringements, let alone worthy of a yellow card.

A quickly-taken free-kick against Liverpool was deemed a bookable offence. As was a perfectly-timed tackle against Kyle Walker-Peters.

His absence leaves Moyes with a decision to make regarding his starting XI. Summer arrival Merlin Rohl could feature, should the German be fit.

It is an opportunity to stake a claim for whoever comes in, and a chance to create some competition for places within the squad.

Palace face Dynamo Kyiv tonight in the UEFA Conference League – a fixture that will take place in Poland due to the ongoing war in Ukraine.

The Blues will hope Sunday’s visitors feel some fatigue following their European endeavours.

However, the Everton stopper is correct. We cannot worry about the opposition and must regain some of the momentum that has seemingly evaporated in recent weeks.
