Match Preview
It hasn’t been the most straightforward first half of the season for Everton, but the Toffees will be looking up for the first time this campaign after moving out of the relegation places in midweek. Everton were excellent in their previous fixture, as they recorded a handsome 3-0 success at Goodison Park against Newcastle. That was their second straight win, and a third in four matches.
Chelsea’s inconsistency has continued in recent weeks, as they come into the upcoming round after losing two of their last three. Their recent midweek defeat against Man United was their sixth of the campaign, and it leaves them sitting just inside the top half of the standings.

Everton have a fine record in this fixture, as they have won four of their last five home matches against the Blues. However, Chelsea were 1-0 winners in this exact fixture last term, and they will be chasing back-to-back wins at Goodison Park for the first time since 2008.
Neither side have a positive record in matches played on a Sunday. Everton have suffered 104 defeats in 246 matches played on a Sunday, which is the second most of any side in the competition’s history. Meanwhile, Chelsea has landed just a single victory in their last eight matches on the road that were played on a Sunday.
Everton vs Chelsea Prediction
It is hard to merit support for Chelsea at their current price in the betting. Everton have turned a corner in recent weeks, and the fact that they bounced back to form at Goodison in midweek could be an essential factor behind backing them this weekend.
