Everton full-back Tony Hibbert (groin) is fit for Friday's FA Cup fourth-round tie against Fulham.

Manager David Moyes may choose to stick with Shane Duffy in the continued absence of Sylvain Distin (hamstring) and Phil Jagielka (knee).

Fulham midfielder Moussa Dembele will miss the tie because he is still suffering from a hip injury.

Orlando Sa (hamstring) is also out as are Mark Schwarzer (spine) and Zdenek Grygera (knee).

Head-to-head

• This is the 55th competitive meeting. Everton have won 24 of the previous 54, Fulham 18, with 12 drawn.

• Everton have already beaten Fulham this season. The 3-1 victory at Craven Cottage in the Premier League took the Toffees' unbeaten run against the London club to four (W3, D1).

• Fulham hold a 100% record against Everton in the FA Cup, winning all four previous ties in which they have been drawn together between 1926 and 2004, three of which required replays after 1-1 draws.

Everton

• The five-times winners and 2009 beaten finalists are trying to reach the fifth round for the second season running.

• This is the eighth time in four seasons that Everton have had to face fellow Premier-League opposition in the competition. They have been successful on five of the previous seven occasions.

• The 2-0 victory over Tamworth in the third round was the only time in 11 league and cup games since the end of November that the Toffees have scored more than a single goal.

Fulham

• The 1975 runners-up are looking for a place in the fifth round for the fourth year running, by winning the first of this weekend's six all-Premier League ties.

• The Cottagers ousted Tottenham at this stage last season; the first Premier League club they eliminated since Everton in 2004.

• Martin Jol's side have been drawn away from home for the first time in seven FA Cup ties, but have not won on the road in seven league and cup games, since the 2-0 Premier League victory over Wigan on 29 October.
