Everton vs Fulham Predicted Lineups

Everton

Frank Lampard is expected to make a number of changes to the Everton team that lost to Manchester City last weekend.

Jordan Pickford will start in goal, behind a back four of Seamus Coleman, Ben Godfrey, Yerry Mina, and Vitaliy Mykolenko.

Abdoulaye Doucoure and Allan are expected to start in central midfield, with Alex Iwobi and Anthony Gordon playing in the wide areas.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin is likely to lead the line for Everton, with Richarlison and Demarai Gray providing support.

Marco Silva is also expected to make a number of changes to the Fulham team that drew with Brentford last weekend.

Bernd Leno will start in goal, behind a back four of Kenny Tete, Tosin Adarabioyo, Tim Ream, and Antonee Robinson.

Harrison Reed and Joao Palhinha are expected to start in central midfield, with Andreas Pereira and Bobby Decordova-Reid playing in the wide areas.

Aleksandar Mitrovic is likely to lead the line for Fulham, with Harry Wilson and Willian providing support.

The key battles in this match will be in midfield and attack.

In midfield, Allan and Doucoure will be tasked with stopping Reed and Palhinha from dictating the tempo of the game.

In attack, Calvert-Lewin and Mitrovic will be looking to get on the scoresheet and lead their teams to victory.

This is a tough match to call, but I think Everton will just edge it.

The Toffees have more quality in their squad, and they will be playing at home.

Fulham are a dangerous team, but I think Everton will have too much for them on this occasion.
