Everton and fulham lock horns in a 3pm kick off at goodison this afternoon. 3pm Kick off tells you that Fulham were playing in europe and to evertons advantage, they were away where they travelled by road. This could be a deciding factor in the final result as fulham could be really tired.
Hodgson has been singled out before for making full use of his large squad and he may be expected to ring the changes for the trip to everton in order to have a good chance of reaching the Europa league final to face either liverpool or atletico madrid.
Everton are starting to gain some players back from injury and an inspired performance by mikel arteta last week seen him score at the win at blackburn. He is expected to start and the team is expected to remain unchanged from that impressive win.
Everton need the win to have any chance of europa league football next season so expect them to go all out against the side they have beaten at home more times than any other team.
My prediction, everton will win but it won’t be easy.
