Everton is coming into this match with a recent trend to the under in their matches as they have also been in much better form. They were awful to start the season, but now they have cleaned things up with no losses in their last 5 straight matches and 2 wins in their last 3. They have gone under 2.5 goals in their last 2 straight as well as 4 of their last 5 matches and their defense has been much better as they have not allowed a goal in their last 2 matches. When playing at home, they have gone under 2.5 goals in 2 of their last 3 matches there and they have allowed 2 goals in those 3 matches. They are going up against a Fulham side that has not been trending to the under recently and they have also been in awful form. They have lost their last 2 straight matches and have allowed 3 goals in each of those. Their losses were also against much stronger teams in Man City and Aston Villa so this is going to be a much weaker attack for them to defend against and they will be focused on good defense away from home after the goals they have conceded in their last 2. When playing away from home, they have actually been trending more to the under in those matches as they have gone under 2.5 goals in 5 of their last 6 matches, going back to the start of the season. Even when these two meet, they have gone under 2.5 goals in their last 3 straight as well as 5 of their last 6 meetings, and the last 3 meetings have only seen 3 goals total. This is going to be a low scoring and more defensive match that stays under 2.5 goals.
