Fulham vs Everton is a Premier League clash with major implications for both sides. The Cottagers, riding high after beating Arsenal, aim to solidify their mid-table position and potentially achieve a historic double over their Merseyside rivals. Meanwhile, Everton, battling relegation worries after slipping back, desperately need three points to escape the drop zone.

Fulham's Home Advantage

 Craven Cottage has transformed into a fortress, with Fulham winning four of their last five Premier League home games. Their recent victories over Arsenal, West Ham, Nottingham Forest, and Wolves represent a stark contrast to the six losses in their previous 12 home matches. Notably, all of their six Premier League wins this season have come on home soil, showcasing their dominance at Craven Cottage.

Despite their league struggles, Everton boast an impressive away record. Only Liverpool and Manchester City have won more Premier League away games this season than the Toffees' five victories. This is a significant improvement compared to their combined four away wins in the previous two campaigns. However, their recent form raises concerns, with defeats against Tottenham, Manchester City, and Wolves preceding a goalless draw against Aston Villa in their last league outing.

What Do We Expect From This Fulham vs Everton Match

Raúl Jiménez poses a particular threat to Everton, having scored five Premier League goals against them – his most against any opponent. However, all those strikes came in his first five appearances, and he has failed to score in his last two encounters with the Toffees. In terms of head-to-head, Fulham are aiming for their first ever league double over Everton in their 30th meeting. In the first encounter this season, Bobby De Cordova-Reid's goal secured a 1-0 victory for the Cottagers at Goodison Park. However, Everton can't be underestimated, considering they've lost only one of their last seven away league games against Fulham (W3 D3).

Prediction: This Fulham vs Everton clash promises a battle of contrasting fortunes. Fulham's home form and historical double opportunity may give them the edge, but Everton's strong away record and desperation for points add an element of uncertainty. While both sides have their strengths and weaknesses, Fulham's home advantage and recent good form suggest they have a slight edge to emerge victorious in this crucial showdown.
