Trevoh Chalobah could make his Crystal Palace debut when the Eagles visit Goodison Park on Saturday (3pm BST) in a meeting of two teams still seeking their first wins of the 2024-25 Premier League season.
Centre-back Chalobah was injured during his first training session after signing on loan from Chelsea for the rest of the campaign.
“This is our first complete training week with this group,” manager Oliver Glasner said. “It’s the first week in September. I’ve experienced a lot in football but never having the first complete training week with your squad at the end of September.”

Palace injuries
USA international Chris Richards is Palace’s only new injury absentee with a hamstring problem the 24-year-old sustained during the week.
Midfielder Cheick Doucoure and defender Chadi Riad remain out, while forward Matheus Franca has returned to training but will not feature.
“Franca won’t be in the squad because it was his first complete week with us,” said Glasner. “After almost six months, it would be unfair to him to be in the squad – but he feels well and he has no problems.”
Palace results
Palace are yet to go ahead in the top flight but have drawn three of their first five games to stand two points above the Toffees.
A goalless stalemate at home to Manchester United last Saturday followed a 2-2 draw at home to Leicester City and a 1-1 draw at Chelsea.
