Everton v Fulham
Football : England : Premier League
Sunday, 25th April 2010 - Kickoff 3pm

---

Everton (8th) Home : 9-6-2 32:20

Everton's season is going to end with no reward, as it seems unlikely that the Toffees can finish in 5th/6th spot now to earn a Europa League place.

Still, playing at home, with an unbeaten run in their last eight Premier League matches, there should be a good buzz around the ground as Everton have been playing well.

Everton had an amazing run against Fulham at Goodison - winning in the last 16 successive home league matches against Fulham.

Everton Team News :
Everton's injury list is reducing by the week, with only John Heitinga, Dan Gosling and Marouane Fellaini still on the sidelines.

Heitinga's season could be over after it was revealed he may have a hairline fracture of his ankle.

Fulham (12th) Away : 1-7-9 11:25

Fulham's season is pretty much over now too domestically, sitting in 12th place, safe from relegation and with no chance of European qualification, and so this game has very little riding on it for the Cottagers.

Fulham's focus is complete on the Europa League now, where a 0-0 draw against German club Hamburg in midweek has set the unheralded London side within touching distance of a first ever European final.

Domestic form has not been so good, especially on the road where Fulham are 0-3-3 in the last six away matches and have failed to score on all six occasions.

Fulham Team News :
Fulham will be without top scorer Bobby Zamora, who aggravated his Achilles injury against Hamburg on Thursday.

John Pantsil may replace Chris Baird at right-back for his first appearance in four months following a knee injury.

THe Betting Verdict :

This is not a match with a huge amount on it - but the home side will want the "feel good" factor to continue - while Fulham wil have all eyes on the midweek Europa League semi-final.

The Statistics :

The Pick :

Everton 2-0 Fulham

PERCENTAGE ESTIMATE :

Everton 73% - Draw 21% - Fulham 6%

FIXED ODDS BETTING :

Take EVERTON to win (main bet)

IF you want a bigger payout then Everton to win to nil should be a winning option. Best price is 2.10 (11/10) at Bet365 - but of course it carries more risk.
