    Kinda of reminds me of something my dad taught me when making sports bets. It's easier to predict the bad teams doing bad than the good teams doing good.

    Like does anyone think it's possible that FUL keeps a CS vs EVE?

        Aguero will get subbed off around 60', Richie will play 85-90.
        Fulham have one of the worst defences in the league and Everton vs Fulham is traditionally high-scoring in Everton's favour.
        Richie was on fire before his suspension and looked menacing against the Arse last week.
        Having said that, I might switch to Aguero come 11.20am. Lol.

          Aguero is the best player in the league, capable of scoring 4+ goals in a game. Brighton are awful away from home.

          Richarlison plays for Everton. Everton..
