Crystal Palace has stunned top-ranked Everton with a 3-2 away win on Tuesday in the English Premier League at the Goodison Park, denting the visitors' hopes of Champions League football next season.
Everton had slipped into fifth place following Arsenal's 3-1 win over West Ham United on Tuesday but could leapfrog Arsene Wenger's side with victory over the newly-promoted side.
