Everton, unbeaten in their last four matches, will face Fulham at Craven Cottage on Saturday.
The Blues are 10th in the league table as things stand and are five points away from the top six. They will be heading into this game on the back of consecutive 1-1 draws with Leeds United and Brighton.
Beto scored with practically the last kick of the game to secure an important point for the Toffees at Amex Stadium after Pascal Gross scored against the run of play in the second half.
Everton have the sixth-best away record in the league this season, winning five and drawing three of their 12 matches. They have conceded just 11 goals in that run, with only Arsenal conceding fewer on the road (9). David Moyes’ side haven’t lost away from home since the 2-0 defeat to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
The Toffees will be bolstered by the addition of Tyrique George on loan from Chelsea, with an option to buy this summer. He will bring depth to the forward line following Jack Grealish’s potentially season-ending injury.
Fulham, meanwhile, are ninth in the league, level on points and goal difference with the Blues. The Cottagers have lost two of their last three games. Benjamin Sesko scored in the 94th minute to seal the win for Manchester United after Raul Jimenez and Kevin led a late comeback to level proceedings from two goals down at Old Trafford.
Fulham have been strong at home, though and only the current top-three Premier League sides have more home wins this season than Fulham (7 in 12 games). The last time these two sides met each other, Everton won 2-0 at Hill Dickinson Stadium and the Toffees will be looking to complete their league double over Fulham for the first time since the 2013-14 campaign.
Fulham vs Everton – Team News and Predicted Lineups
Everton Team News
Everton will be without Jack Grealish, who’s likely to miss the rest of the season with foot injury. Tyrique George has been brought in to shore up the forward line and it will be interesting to see whether the youngster is given his first start at Craven Cottage.
Vitalii Mykolenko, who missed the last game due to injury, is back in training and is in contention to return to the lineup. Moyes might be tempted to manage Jarrad Branthwaite‘s minutes after the defender was on the pitch for 89 minutes against Brighton, having recently returned from a long-term injury.
Although Beto scored the dramatic last-minute winner at Amex Stadium, Thierno Barry is expected to lead the frontline once again.
Everton’s predicted starting XI: Jordan Pickford (GK), Jake O’Brien, James Tarkowski, Michael Keane, Vitalii Mykolenko, Idrissa Gueye, James Garner, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Harrison Armstrong, Thierno Barry, Iliman Ndiaye
