TEAMS PREVIEW

Everton FC Preview

Everton may have been frustrated with the 1-1 draw against Sunderland, but for Moyes, it was a relief to see his side end their two-game losing streak and finally find the net through Illiman Ndiaye.  However, missed chances from Jack Grealish and Thierno Barry proved costly, with the latter subbed off early after another poor outing. With Barry and Beto managing just one goal between them in ten games, Everton’s striker woes persist — and the pressure is mounting on Moyes to find a solution.

In a potential setback for the Toffees, Illiman Ndiaye remains doubtful for the weekend clash after picking up an injury in the last game, while Jarrad Branthwaite and Nathan Patterson are still on the sidelines.

Stats that matter

1. Everton haven’t lost back-to-back home games since last December and January, but after suffering their first home defeat of the season, they’ll be eager to avoid a repeat when Fulham come calling.
2. The Toffees have only won one of their last seven Premier League games (D3, L3) at home.
3. Everton's current average of 302 passes per game in the league is their highest since the 2020-22 campaign. 

Everton Probable XI - Pickford (GK); O’Brien, Tarkowski, Keane, Mykolenko (Defenders); Idrissa Gueye, Dewsbury Hall, Garner (Midfielders) ; Ndiaye/McNeil, Beto/Barry, Grealish (Forwards)

Fulham FC Preview

Marco Silva’s men finally ended their four-game losing streak with an impressive 3-0 win over Wolves, courtesy of goals from Ryan Sessegnon, Harry Wilson, and an own goal. But Silva will know that victory came against the league’s bottom side and at the comfort of Craven Cottage, where Fulham have lost only once all season, that too against Arsenal. Now, they face a tougher test — taking on Everton away, after three straight defeats on the road.

Fulham’s only injury worry is Antonee Robinson, who is expected to miss out on the weekend clash as he continues his recovery.

Stats that matter 

1. All of the three wins that Fulham have had in the season have come at the Craven Cottage.
2. Three of Fulham’s 12 goals in the league have been opposition own goals.
3. Alex Iwobi has created eight chances for Harry Wilson in the league this season, which is the most one player has created for a teammate in competition 

Fulham Probable XI - Leno (GK); Castagne, Issa Diop, Sessegnon, Bassey  ( Defenders) ; Berge, Iwobi, King (Midfielders); Wilson, Jimenez, Traore/Kevin (Forwards). 

EVERTON FC vs FULHAM FC
Winning Prediction

While Everton hold the edge in overall head-to-head stats, recent history tells a different story — Fulham are unbeaten in their last four visits (three wins, one draw). However, with the clash set at Everton’s new home, where they’ve looked solid this season, the Toffees will fancy their chances. Still, the Cottagers will back themselves if they can keep Jack Grealish under wraps. As far as the odds are concerned, Everton  are the favourites to win the first match with odds of 2.21 to Fulham’s 3.57 and odds of a draw of at 3.50.
