Everton will entertain Fulham at Goodison Park this Saturday evening as they try to secure a win at home in the Premier League. The Toffees managed to earn a solid 2-0 win away at Ipswich Town last weekend which should keep them in good spirits ahead of this game.
Sean Dyche will set his team up in a 4-4-1-1 formation and could make one change to his first team for this clash. Orel Mangala could get a chance to play from the start of this game while Idrissa Gueye makes way for him and drops to the bench.
4-4-1-1 Everton Predicted Lineup To Face Fulham
Defence
Jordan Pickford will play in goal for the Toffees after keeping a clean sheet in his last league appearance. James Tarkowski will resume his partnership with Michael Keane as they look to keep things solid on the defensive end of the field.
Ashley Young will try to prove his value as the right-back while Vitaliy Mykolneko hopes to catch the eye on the other flank as the left-back. Both of them will have to pick and choose their moments to join in on the attack
Jake O’Brien will offer cover for the defensive positions on the bench.
Midfield
Abdoulaye Doucoure and Orel Mangala will operate as Everton’s holding midfielders as they try to make life difficult for the visitors at the centre of the park. The talented trio of Iliman Ndiaye, Dwight McNeil and Jack Harrison will play just ahead of them as part of Dyche’s attack. All three of them need to be at the top of their game if the Toffees want to create enough chances to win this game.
Idrissa Gueye will have to settle for a place on the bench as he waits for his chance to make an impact in the second 45 minutes if needed.
Attack
Dominic Calvert-Lewin will spearhead Everton’s attack up top. He has to find a way to be a constant menace in and around the Fulham penalty area.
Beto will be named on the bench and might come on to influence the game in the final quarter if Everton are in need of a goal by then.
