Team News

Everton
Fulham
  • Dele Alli, Dwight McNeil and Seamus Coleman are all absent for Everton this weekend.
  • Striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin and new arrival Arnaut Danjuma will both be assessed, with Sean Dyche hopeful the latter can feature.
  • Demarai Gray, who has been linked with a move to Fulham, has been training away from the first team squad.
  • Central midfielders Joao Palhinha and Tom Cairney miss out for the Cottagers this weekend.
  • Raul Jimenez should lead the charge on Saturday afternoon with Aleksandar Mitrovic pushing for a summer exit.
  • Fellow new arrival Calvin Bassey is also set to feature at the back.

Prediction

  • Everton confirmed their Premier League status on the final day of last season and they'll look to enjoy a more comfortable campaign this time around. The Toffees have added experience to the squad, but are still missing a striker.
  • Fulham's star frontman is set to depart this month, and the Cottagers have prepared for his exit by bringing in Raul Jimenez. The Cottagers exceeded expectations last time out, but the pressure is now on to avoid second-season syndrome.
  • These two may play out an opening weekend draw at Goodison Park.

  • Wrong call in the disallowed goal, to me was a clear foul from Leno who almost hung over his rival. Just since 1st week and referees want to play the main role in any match.
