The former Arsenal man Alex Iwobi has been handed his third start of the current season as the Everton chase a win against the newly-promoted side Fulham, BSNSports.com.ng reports.
Carlo Ancelotti's men had lost three in a row in the top-flight and were winless in the last four going into the match, but they picked maximum point against the promoted side who put up a spirited fight.
The Toffees got off to a perfect start when Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored in the first minute after getting onto a Richarlison ball.

Bobby Reid however pulled the hosts level in the 15th minute following a good team move.
Everton took the lead once again with Calvert-Lewin grabbing a second of the match, and Abdoulaye Doucoure made it 3-1 after 35 minutes.
Fulham were the better side in the second period and should have cut the deficit in the 68th minute but Ivan Cavaleiro missed a penalty.
