Fulham Preview: Final Push for Continental Football
Despite a narrow 1-0 defeat at Villa Park in their last outing, Fulham remain within touching distance of a top-eight finish. A strong performance at home could put them back in the race for European qualification, with only a few points separating them from the coveted positions.
While consistency has eluded Marco Silva’s side throughout the season, their attacking intent, especially at home, continues to make them a threat. With 15 wins from 35 matches, Fulham need to rediscover their rhythm quickly if they are to extend their campaign into Europe.
Everton Preview: Limping to the Finish Line
After a promising mid-season spell, Everton has hit a wall. Just one win in their last ten league matches reflects a worrying decline in form. Most recently, they let a 2-0 lead slip against already-relegated Ipswich Town, further highlighting their struggles.
With little left to play for and focus potentially already shifting to their season finale against Southampton, Everton may find it difficult to match Fulham’s urgency. David Moyes’ men have been uninspired in recent weeks and could be vulnerable away from home.

Match Prediction
Given the current trajectories of both sides, Fulham enter this fixture as clear favourites. Their home advantage, combined with the motivation of a potential European spot, gives them the upper hand. Everton, struggling for momentum and motivation, may find it hard to resist Fulham’s intensity at Craven Cottage.
Prediction: Fulham to win
