Everton manager Ancelotti says no underestimating Fulham

Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti says there'll be no underestimating Fulham.

Ancelotti is still smarting from the previous Premier League home game when Everton flopped 2-0 against Newcastle and says his players will be fully briefed on Scott Parker's side even though they are in the bottom three.

"In modern football you know everything about the teams because you have video and scouting," said Ancelotti, who has managed Europe's biggest clubs including Real Madrid, AC Milan, PSG, Bayern Munich, Juventus and Chelsea.

"It isn't just me who is working. We have other staff gathering information and watching videos that we can show to the players

"We spend the same time whether it is Fulham or another club. In the game against Newcastle we didn't have a good approach.

"Fulham is a different team. We have to play differently compared to Newcastle – but the mental approach also has to be different."
