Everton vs Fulham: Premier League Match Preview
Teams
Two teams on opposite ends of the form table meet at Goodison Park on Saturday afternoon, as 17th-placed Everton host Fulham, who have won their last three games. Everton are without a win in their last six league games, which has left them just three points above the relegation zone, and they have conceded the first goal in four of their last five matches. Fulham, meanwhile, have climbed to seventh in the table after three consecutive wins, and they have kept clean sheets in each of those victories.
Head-to-head
The two sides have met 38 times in the Premier League, with Everton winning 15 matches to Fulham's 11, and there have been 12 draws. The last meeting between the sides was in May 2021, when Fulham won 2-0 at Craven Cottage.
Key players
Everton will be looking to Dominic Calvert-Lewin to lead the line, while Fulham will be hoping that Aleksandar Mitrovic can continue his fine form in front of goal. Calvert-Lewin has scored five goals in his last nine appearances for Everton, while Mitrovic has scored seven goals in his last seven games for Fulham.
Prediction
This is a tough match to call, as both teams are in good form. However, Everton's poor home form this season may just give Fulham the edge. The visitors are also in better spirits after their recent run of victories, and they will be confident of getting a result at Goodison Park.
