Draw
A draw seems like a plausible outcome in this encounter, as both Everton and Fulham have displayed a mixture of attacking potential and defensive frailties throughout the season. Everton, although struggling earlier on, have shown improvement in their attacking play, scoring five goals in their last four matches. Key players like Dwight McNeil have been pivotal in this resurgence, and with the home crowd behind them, Everton will feel confident in their ability to find the back of the net.
On the other hand, Fulham have been consistent in front of goal, particularly in away matches, where they have scored in each of their last five fixtures. Raul Jiménez has found form, while creative players such as Emile Smith Rowe and Andreas Pereira have added firepower to Fulham’s attack. Averaging 1.4 goals per game, Fulham are more than capable of breaching Everton’s defence.
However, defensively, both teams have struggled. Everton concede an average of 1.9 goals per match, and Fulham allow 1.4. Defensive errors have been a common theme for both sides, and Fulham’s defensive absences due to injury and suspension further weaken their backline. Despite Everton’s recent improvement in form, their defensive vulnerabilities make it difficult to see them keeping a clean sheet, while Fulham’s backline is unlikely to keep Everton at bay either. A draw reflects the balance between the two teams’ attacking strengths and defensive weaknesses, making it the most likely result.

Both Teams to Score
Both teams finding the back of the net appears to be a strong possibility, given their recent form and defensive vulnerabilities. Everton have stepped up their attacking game recently, netting nine goals in their last eight Premier League fixtures. Dwight McNeil has been one of the standout performers, scoring three goals, with Iliman Ndiaye contributing two as well. Everton’s attack has been producing more chances, with an average of 10.9 shots per game.
Fulham’s scoring form has been equally impressive. They’ve netted in their last nine consecutive games across all competitions and have managed 11 goals in their eight Premier League matches so far this season. Raul Jiménez is leading their line with four goals, and with the creativity of Emile Smith Rowe and Andreas Pereira behind him, Fulham consistently generate opportunities, averaging 14.4 shots per game.
Defensively, both teams have been far from solid. Everton have conceded 15 goals in eight games, almost two per match, and have shown a propensity for errors that lead to chances for the opposition. Fulham are similarly vulnerable, having let in 11 goals in the same number of games. Key suspensions and injuries have further weakened their backline, making them more susceptible to conceding. With both teams displaying attacking talent but also defensive frailties, it’s hard to imagine either side keeping a clean sheet, making both teams to score a solid bet.
Raúl Jiménez to Score Anytime
Raúl Jiménez is in fine form for Fulham, and backing him to score anytime during this match offers excellent value. The Mexican forward has been directly involved in Fulham’s last five league matches, scoring four goals and adding one assist. His intelligent movement and sharp finishing make him a constant threat to opposing defences, and against Everton’s shaky backline, he will likely get chances to score.
Everton’s defence has been leaky this season, conceding 15 goals in just eight games. They’ve averaged nearly two goals against per match and have committed two costly errors leading directly to opposition goals. Injuries in defence have compounded their issues, making them even more vulnerable to a striker of Jiménez’s calibre.
Fulham’s attacking numbers further support Jiménez’s goal-scoring potential. They average 14.4 shots per match and create a high volume of clear-cut chances. With creative players like Andreas Pereira and Emile Smith Rowe providing service, Jiménez is well-positioned to capitalise on the opportunities that come his way. Given his form and Everton’s defensive frailties, Jiménez is a strong candidate to find the net.
Dwight McNeil to Score Anytime
Dwight McNeil is a good option in the anytime scorer market for this match, thanks to his consistent contribution to Everton’s attacking play. McNeil has been directly involved in six of Everton’s league goals this season, scoring three and assisting three more. His ability to cut inside from the wing and unleash powerful shots has made him one of Everton’s most reliable attackers.
Fulham’s defence, weakened by injuries and suspensions, will face a tough challenge in containing Everton’s attack. McNeil, who has been in fine form recently, will likely get opportunities to test Fulham’s backline. Everton have managed to score exactly two goals in two of their last three games, and with Fulham struggling defensively on the road, McNeil will be key to any success Everton might have.
Although Fulham are strong going forward, their defence has been vulnerable, especially away from home, where they’ve conceded in every match this season. Everton’s recent improvement in attack, combined with McNeil’s form, makes him a strong candidate to get on the scoresheet. Backing him to score anytime is a sound bet given the circumstances.
