Fulham and Everton will meet in one of the biggest games of the season for either side so far in the Premier League campaign of 2022/23 with the Cottagers and the Toffees both getting excellent results on the board in recent weeks.
No side has been surprising the Premier League like Fulham this season, as they are now up into seventh after a fantastic 3-2 win over Leeds recently.

It puts them one point ahead of Liverpool, although the Reds do have a game in hand down in eighth in the table.
What's more, with 22 goals let in and 22 goals conceded, Fulham remain a very tricky side to predict this season and there is always a chance they can fall by the wayside.
On the other hand, Aleksandar Mitrovic already has nine goals in 11 Premier League games this season for the club and is only being outscored by Harry Kane and Erling Haaland this campaign.
The Serbian will look to bully a weakened Everton side, but in truth, Frank Lampard’s men have been much better in defence this season with just 12 goals let in from 12 games.
In fact, this is fewer goals than their rivals Liverpool up in eighth and if the Toffees can win here and Liverpool lose, they will draw level on points with their Merseyside rivals.
Fulham are also on a three-game unbeaten run in the league right now after a 3-1 loss to West Ham United earlier in the campaign.
They went on to draw 2-2 with Bournemouth, before registering a fantastic 3-0 win over Aston Villa and then that win over Leeds.
Moreover, they will be eager to get all three points here with them playing both Manchester United and Manchester City before the World Cup break where they will struggle to get points on the board.
Everton managed to beat Crystal Palace 3-0 as Dominic Calvert-Lewin finally returned to the scoresheet with a fantastic effort in that game.
It's one of the toughest games to predict in the Premier League this weekend with not much separating either side this season.
At the same time, the defensive struggles of Fulham continue, just as Everton continue to put up a good fight at the back off the back of conceding the third-most goals last season.
Forebet predicts a win here for Fulham, however, with the game to see over 2.5 goals.
