Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.After winning at Old Trafford and dominating at The Emirates, seeing off Fulham at home should be a breeze for Everton. The Cottagers have lost 13 of their 14 trips to Goodison Park in the Premier League and must travel up to Merseyside this weekend on the back of what has been their worst ever start to a Premier League season.
However, Fulham have been reinvigorated by new boss Rene Meulensteen and they will be buoyed by their convincing 2-0 victory over Aston Villa last Sunday.
Yet even with Dimitar Berbatov back in the mood, the Goodison Park faithful, who frequently witnessed big name scalps followed up by disappointing defeats during the Moyes era, will be demanding all three points from this one.
