Midfielder James McCarthy is suspended for Everton's clash with Fulham, having picked up a fifth booking of the season against Arsenal last weekend.Leon Osman is his likely replacement, but defender Tony Hibbert won't be fit until next week after injuring his knee in training.Fulham have on-loan forward Darren Bent available again after a hamstring injury.Defender Fernando Amorebieta could also return from a similar problem.
If you'd been asked in August "who will be the only team to have lost just one Premier League game come the middle of December" how many of you would have said Everton?
Thought so, me neither. The fact that they have says a lot about Roberto Martinez's ability to improve an established squad so soon, and how willing the players have been to take on new ideas.
The new Blues boss had a solid foundation from which to build, but has added cleverly to it. They are a team that are very hard to beat and have lost just three of their last 26 league matches.
The next question is - how long can it continue? The fact that their three loan players Romelu Lukaku, Gareth Barry and Gerard Deulofeu are around all season gives them a fighting chance. Add that to the development of Ross Barkley and all signs look positive.
The challenge now is to win when everyone expects them to, just as they did in their last home game when they hit Stoke for four.
Prior to that, the last team to concede that many in the league at Goodison were Fulham in April 2012, but visiting coach Rene Meulensteen will be more concerned with the here and now.
The victory over Aston Villa last time out was absolutely huge after six straight league defeats. Had they lost again, with this match and a home game against Manchester City on the horizon, some would have feared the worst.
In stark contrast to Everton, Fulham have lost 16 of their last 23 league matches. Whether they can get a positive result on Merseyside may depend on which Dimitar Berbatov turns up. If it's the one from the win over Villa their chances are far stronger.
In a season full of surprises, a Fulham win at Goodison would be another one.
Everton are a fortnight away from being a year unbeaten at home. They won't relinquish that easily.
Head-to-head
Fulham have never won a league game at Everton (D4, L21).
