The Premier League is back in action with another set of fixtures this weekend as Everton take on Fulham at Goodison Park on Sunday. Everton have been impressive this season and are the favourites to win this game.

Fulham have struggled in the Premier League this season and find themselves in 18th place in the league table. The Cottagers are set to face an intense relegation battle in the coming months and will need to win this game.

Everton, on the other hand, find themselves in seventh place in the Premier League standings and have grown under Carlo Ancelotti. The Toffees played out a 5-4 thriller against the Spurs in the FA Cup earlier this week and will be confident ahead of this fixture.

Everton vs Fulham Prediction

Everton have impressive players in their ranks and have shown tremendous improvement over the past few months under Carlo Ancelotti. The Toffees are a robust unit and will be disappointed with anything less than a victory in this fixture.

Fulham have not done justice to their potential in the Premier League but have pulled off the occasional upset this season. Everton are the better team, however, and are likely to win this game.

Prediction: Everton 2-1 Fulham
