Everton vs Fulham Preview - 12/08/2023 - Premier League
In the opening weekend of the new Premier League season, Everton will welcome Fulham at Goodison Park.
The Toffees will aim for a less stressful campaign this time, having narrowly avoided relegation on the final day of the previous season and the penultimate game the season before.
Marco Silva's side, on the other hand, will be seeking to maintain their strong form from before Aleksandar Mitrovic's eight-game suspension for an incident at Old Trafford. Before that setback, they were competing for European spots and will look to recapture that momentum.
However, in the previous meeting between both teams, the Cottagers secured their first win in two months against the opposing side. Unfortunately, the defeat left the blue-clad team in a precarious position just above the relegation zone, with their goal difference playing a vital role.

Everton vs Fulham Prediction - 12/08/2023 - Premier League
Although Everton finished their season on a remarkable high by securing a crucial win against AFC Bournemouth to avoid relegation, Fulham, unfortunately, suffered a defeat in their final match against United.
However, the Cottagers should have the necessary quality to secure a victory in this upcoming clash.
While Sean Dyche's team are expected to show improvement in the next season, considering their performances in the past two years and the highly impressive displays orchestrated by Silva, it's reasonable to support the white-outfit team.
The situation becomes even more challenging for the Merseyside-based club as they have to contend with Mitrovic's return and his eagerness to perform.
Prediction: 1 - 1
