David Moyes' men have struggled at home this season, but hold a good record over the west Londoners, having beaten them 10 times on Merseyside in the Premier League
By Thomas Anthony Wilson

EVERTON
Howard Neville, Duffy, Heitinga, Baines Gibson, Fellaini Donovan, Cahill, Drenthe Anichebe |
FULHAM

Ireland Under-21 international Shane Duffy is also set to deputize in central defense once again, with Sylvain Distin and Phil Jagielka both out injured. Leon Osman is out due to a knee problem.
Fulham is likely to retain most of the side that hammered in-form Newcastle United 5-2 at the weekend, but Moussa Dembele and Dickson Etuhu could return from respective injuries, with Steve Sidwell also facing a race to be fit.
Mark Schwarzer is still a week or two away from returning to action, while Zdenek Grygera remains the only long-term absentee for Martin Jol.
