Fulham welcome Everton to Craven Cottage on 10th May 2025 for a Premier League encounter that could prove decisive in the mid-table standings. With both sides struggling for consistency, a win here could provide a late-season lift. Kick Off Nigeria editor Ayomide Oguntimehin previews the clash by the Thames.
Fulham vs Everton Match Preview
Fulham have been inconsistent in recent weeks, trading wins and losses as they look to solidify their place in the top half. A 3–2 victory over Liverpool was promising, but narrow defeats to Chelsea and Aston Villa have dented their momentum. Still, Marco Silva’s side have been relatively strong at home and will look to capitalise on that advantage.
Everton, meanwhile, are battling to remain safely above the relegation zone. A 2–2 draw against Ipswich last time out followed back-to-back defeats to Chelsea and Manchester City. Despite that, the Blues have shown some fight on the road, with wins at Nottingham Forest and draws at Brentford and Wolves offering signs of promise.

Fulham are unbeaten in their last five meetings with Everton, winning three and drawing two. Their recent dominance in this fixture could play a psychological role heading into this encounter.
Recent Form: Fulham
Fulham’s form has been a rollercoaster. A 1–0 loss to Aston Villa recently came after a strong away win at Southampton. At home, they’ve looked impressive at times, including wins over Liverpool and Tottenham, but inconsistency has seen them drop points to the likes of Chelsea and Crystal Palace.
Recent Form: Everton
Everton have earned just two points in their last three matches. After a 2–2 draw against Ipswich, they fell to defeats against Chelsea and Manchester City. Their away form, however, has been more encouraging, with results against Wolves, Brentford, and Nottingham Forest helping keep them afloat.
Player to Watch: Alex Iwobi (Fulham)
Returning to face his former club, Nigerian international Alex Iwobi is expected to be at the heart of Fulham’s attacking play. His vision and link-up play could be decisive against an Everton side vulnerable in transition.
