Everton will be facing Fulham at Goodison Park for the Saturday evening kick-off in the Premier League. The match is set to start at 5.30pm and will mark the return of Marco Silva to L4. Silva, who was previously in charge of Everton for 18 months before being sacked by the club’s owner Farhad Moshiri, has since rebuilt his reputation at Fulham. He led the club to the Championship title and has managed to secure wins on his last three visits to his former club.
However, Everton will be looking to put an end to Silva’s winning streak as they come into the game on the back of a four-match unbeaten run. Their latest victory was a well-deserved 2-0 triumph against Ipswich Town last weekend. Sean Dyche, the Everton manager, is expected to have the same squad available for selection, with the addition of England centre-back Jarrad Branthwaite who is now back from injury. It remains to be seen whether Branthwaite will replace the in-form Michael Keane in the starting lineup.
