Fulham vs Everton Prediction 7 February 2026
🔊 Will Everton's unbeaten streak in the Premier League continue? The Toffees have gone four matches without a loss, but they face a tough trip to the English capital on Saturday to take on their table neighbors, Fulham. The Cottagers are also in relatively good form, having lost only twice in their last nine league outings. The clubs sit back-to-back on the brink of the top ten in the Premier League, with an equal number of points. Who will remain there after this head-to-head clash? Our editorial team provides an insightful prediction.
Head-to-Head
📊 Everton have recently become quite a challenging opponent for Fulham. The Cottagers have failed to defeat the Toffees in their last five encounters. Over the span of 10 meetings, the picture is slightly better: four wins for the Merseysiders compared to three for Fulham. The teams have also drawn three times.
Head-to-head statistics Fulham - Everton
Fulham Team Overview
Marco Silva's squad have experienced a rapid ascent in the last nine Premier League matches, climbing from 14th to 9th place in the standings - their highest position this season. During this stretch, they have suffered only two defeats in the league, both occurring over the past three weeks.
Fulham's latest setback came at Old Trafford and was somewhat undeserved. The Cottagers enjoyed more possession (58% to 42%) and launched slightly more frequent and dangerous attacks (14 shots with 2.45 xG compared to 13 shots with 1.64 xG). However, in a dramatic shootout that concluded in stoppage time with two goals after the 90th minute, the hosts emerged victorious (3-2).

Everton Team Overview
Everton, unlike Fulham, have been comfortably sitting in the Premier League's top ten for quite some time. The Toffees secured their spot nine matchdays ago and have only slipped out of the top ten for one week since. David Moyes' side have achieved this thanks to just one defeat in their last seven league matches. However, it's challenging to aim for a spot near European competition with so many draws; they've accumulated four over that same stretch.
Everton's latest draw came in their away fixture against Brighton (1-1). The visitors should be content with this result. Throughout the match, the hosts held a slight edge with 54% possession and 11 shots, compared to the Toffees' seven attempts. From the 73rd to the 97th minute, the Seagulls led, but Everton managed to equalize in the dying seconds.

Latest news
Fulham
🎙 Fulham's head coach expressed his disappointment following the defeat to Manchester United. "We played an excellent match. In the second half, our team performed better. Judging by how we played and controlled possession, they wanted to press us as hard as possible, but we didn't allow them to do so. They scored when we switched off, but we kept playing and scored a goal that was disallowed. It's tough, but we have to accept it," Marco Silva commented.
❌ Fulham's injury list remains unchanged from the previous round: Rodrigo Muniz and Sasa Lukic continue to be regulars on the sidelines. New signing Oscar Bobb joined from Manchester City with an injury.
Everton
🎙 Everton manager David Moyes was handed a yellow card for his exuberant celebrations following his team's 97th-minute goal at the Amex. The Scotsman expressed his bewilderment at the referee's decision: "A yellow card for that? Imagine being penalized for celebrating! Who wants to see managers punished for showing emotion? I probably wouldn't have danced if the goal came in the 55th minute. The referees have no understanding of what football means to managers."
❌ Everton recently lost two key players: Jack Grealish and Vitalii Mykolenko. However, the injury sustained by the Ukrainian defender during training before the 24th Premier League round is not as severe as initially feared, so the medical staff will assess his readiness for the clash against Fulham.
🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards
The main referee for the match is Stuart Attwell. His average number of yellow cards over the last 20 Premier League matches stands at 4.6. It seems his assertive officiating might be necessary in the upcoming clash. The teams are neck and neck in the Premier League standings, tied on points and even on goal difference. The battle to stay in the top ten promises to be intense. Therefore, a bet on total yellow cards over 3.5 is worth considering.
⚽️ Goal Prediction
Everton score at a level typical for teams at the lower end of the Premier League table, but they do it consistently: seven matches in a row. This consistency explains why the Toffees have an identical goal difference to their upcoming opponent. Fulham, meanwhile, are not known for defensive reliability, failing to keep a clean sheet in their last seven games. Given these circumstances, there is a strong likelihood that Everton will score a goal.
🚩 Corner Prediction
Under David Moyes, Everton play with a pragmatic approach, evident in their modest scoring record. The Toffees often rely on counterattacks, spending less time in the opposition's final third. Consequently, their set-piece opportunities suffer; in seven consecutive matches, the Merseysiders have earned no more than four corners. Therefore, we suggest betting on Everton's total corners under 4.5.
Editor's Prediction
We've often highlighted Everton's modest yet consistent scoring ability, which helps them secure at least a few points and maintain a spot in the Premier League's top ten. This approach might pay off at Craven Cottage, where Fulham have failed to keep a clean sheet in six of their last seven matches, a trend that holds regardless of the venue. Meanwhile, the Londoners' attack is in good form, having netted at least two goals in four of their last five league games. Given these factors, a reasonable bet would be on both teams to score (yes). We slightly favor the hosts for a narrow victory, as they have shown better offensive prowess (2-1).
