Winners of consecutive league matches after a concerning blip, Fulham are just outside the European places ahead of the visit of Everton this weekend.
Marco Silva’s team have taken 11 points from six home Premier League fixtures.
Everton have lost their last two on the road to nil. Only three sides have scored fewer goals than Frank Lampard’s side, who remain without Ben Godfrey, Andros Townsend and Yerry Mina.
Fulham welcome back Dan James after being ineligible against Leeds, but Manor Solomon and Layvin Kurzawa are both in the physio’s room.
Winner: Fulham
Everton dispatched Crystal Palace last weekend, but the Toffees are a much easier opponent when they are away from Goodison Park.
Fulham have quickly built up a significant home advantage upon their return to the Premier League, recording impressive victories over Brentford, Brighton and Villa.
The expected goals table has these teams neck-and-neck, yet the clinical edge of Aleksandar Mitrovic could be decisive. Fulham’s firepower has made them far more competitive than many expected.
Anytime Goalscorer: Aleksandar Mitrovic
On that note, it is only appropriate to back the Serbian to score anytime.
Still, only Erling Haaland and Harry Kane have scored more than Mitrovic. Those two are the only players with a superior expected goals mark, too.
After falling short in the Premier League in his previous efforts, Mitrovic looks at home in the topflight this time. Everton’s defenders have their work cut out to keep him quiet.
Total Corners: Over 10.5
Everton average the most total corners in the Premier League.
Fulham are below-average in that category, but with the direct nature of their play funnelled towards Mitrovic, they are bound to force a few corner kicks against a deep Everton back line.
At 11/10, this is a good price on the over.
