Jordan Pickford makes Everton return as midfield starlet named on bench at Crystal Palace in FA Cup

Jordan Pickford returns to the Everton starting line-up against Crystal Palace in the quarter-final of the FA Cup.

Frank Lampard has made four changes from the side that beat Newcastle United on Thursday evening at Goodison Park. Asmir Begovic drops out and is not included on the bench.

Andre Gomes, Andros Townsend and Jonjoe Kenny all play from the start as Everton look to potentially secure a trip to Wembley next month. They replace Allan, Alex Iwobi and Demarai Gray.

The former of that trio is serving the first of his three-match suspension following his red card earlier in the week. The latter both take up a place on the bench alongside Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who is still searching for his first goal of 2022.

Everton have selected five defenders for this game with Kenny being joined by Seamus Coleman, Michael Keane, Ben Godfrey and Mason Holgate in the line-up.

Richarlison has kept his place up front with Anthony Gordon and Abdoulaye Doucoure also retaining their spots.

Everton midfield starlet Isaac Price is named on the bench.

Everton: Pickford, Kenny, Coleman, Keane, Holgate, Godfrey, Doucoure, Gomes, Townsend, Richarlison, Gordon

Subs: Lonergan, Tyrer, Patterson, Branthwaite, Mykolenko, Price, Iwobi, Gray, Calvert-Lewin
