Sports Mole looks ahead to the Premier League game between Everton and Fulham on Saturday.

Everton face the team that they have a 100% home record against in the Premier League on Saturday as Fulham visit Goodison Park.

A win for the hosts would all but seal Europa League qualification ahead of Merseyside rivals Liverpool with the Toffees looking to recover from the 1-0 defeat at Sunderland last time out.

Fulham are on a poor run of form, having collected just one point from 12 matches, and although almost safe from relegation, they will be pushing for a top-half finish.

Manager David Moyes has doubts over Victor Anichebe and Darron Gibson who picked up knocks against Sunderland, while Phil Jagielka could return after missing the game entirely.

Fulham are still without Damien Duff and the long-term absentee Ashkan Dejagah, which means Alexander Kacaniklic and Stanislav Manolev are likely to play on the wings. Steve Sidwell starts his four-match suspension for the red card against Arsenal.

Sports Mole says: 2-0
