Everton boss Frank Lampard admits they must be wary of Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic.

Everton meet the Cottagers this weekend.

On Mitrovic, Lampard said: "I saw his international record recently and it's outstanding. As an all-round striker, he is really strong. He is difficult to mark if he can jump and get a run on you. We understand the threat, but clearly he is a big threat for them.

"They have changed coaches and sometimes you have a situation when things come together in a good way.

"The maturity of the team is probably more stable than it has been in recent years. We know we're in for a tough game and we have to treat them with the respect they deserve."
