These teams have almost identical records after 24 games, sitting on 34 points with the same goal difference, and Marco Silva's men are only above the Toffees in ninth because they have a superior goals scored total.

Silva will still be wondering how his side managed to lose at Old Trafford on Sunday, having come from 2-0 down to level in the first minute of stoppage time against Manchester United.

It will be interesting to see if Benjamin Sesko's last-gasp strike affects their morale as Fulham look to bounce back against Everton.

There was also late drama in Everton's fixture last weekend but this time they were the ones celebrating as Beto struck in the dying seconds to salvage a 1-1 draw at Brighton & Hove Albion.

David Moyes now some key players back, with only Jack Grealish missing, and if he can eke out a win at Craven Cottage it will give the Toffees even more momentum.

How the bookies view it: Full speed ahead

Fulham are unbeaten in their last five at Craven Cottage and that's why they're favourites at a best 57/50 with BetMGM. Everton are 13/5 with most firms and the draw pays 23/10 at Bet365.

Recent head to head: Toffees on top

Everton have held the upper hand in this fixture of late, going five games without defeat. They won 3-1 at Craven Cottage last term, mounting a stirring fightback after Raul Jimenez's early opener.

Players to watch: Harry's game

Everton failed with a cheeky bid for Fulham star Harry Wilson on transfer deadline day so it would be a cruel twist of fate if he hurt them in this game. The in-form Welshman has four goals in his last six games and is 13/10 at Bet365 to score or assist.

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall's return from injury has given Everton a boost in the last couple of games. He has been an excellent signing and is 27/10 at BetMGM for a goal or assist.

Probable line-ups

Everton have a pretty clean bill of health, with only Grealish injured while Vitaliy Mykolenko is a doubt. It's a similar story for Fulham with just Rodrigo Muniz crocked and Sasa Lukic a doubt.

Fulham: Leno, Tete, Bassey, Andersen, Robinson, Chukwueze, Berge, Iwobi, Wilson, Kevin, Jimenez.

Everton: Pickford, O'Brien, Keane, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Garner, Gueye, Alcaraz, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndiaye, Barry.

MFT's X-pert tip: Under 2.5 goals

Fulham’s home record of W7-D2-L3 shows efficiency rather than dominance. They have scored 21 goals at Craven Cottage, yet the underlying process is modest. Home xG sits at 1.18, supported by steady but unspectacular SIB volume and average SOT output.

Fulham score regularly, finding the net in 11 of 12 home games, but defensive control is limited. Home xGA trends above 1.40 across splits and only four clean sheets underline vulnerability once pressure builds. Their home xPTS aligns closely with results, pointing to narrow margins rather than sustained control. Everton’s away profile is more stable. They rank sixth in the away table with five wins and only 11 goals conceded. Away xGA of 1.33 supports that solidity, with lower SIB and SOT conceded than Fulham allow at home. Everton’s away xPTS slightly exceeds their actual return, suggesting their structure travels well. With just 17 % of away matches clearing over 2.5 goals, Everton consistently manage game state and suppress volatility. The data points toward a tight contest, shaped by Everton control and Fulham efficiency rather than open play chaos. .

Anything else catch the eye?

This should be a tight game and three of the last five meetings have ended level. The draw looks a good option here but I'm playing it a bit safer and going for the half-time stalemate at 11/10 with Ladbrokes.

This fixture has produced a lot of corners recently, with an average of 16 across the last three meetings at Craven Cottage. That suggests over 10.5 corners stands a good chance here at 11/10 with Betfred.

Over 2.5 goals has only come up in one of the last six meetings so it could pay to back under 2.5 strikes here, although the odds aren't great at a best 4/6 with BetMGM.
