Premier League

Chelsea vs Everton Preview: Chelsea looking to keep their unbeaten run intact when Marco Silva’s side travel to Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

The Blues sit in second place on goal difference of three over Liverpool. They will be aiming to maintain their superb start to the season when they face Marco Silva’s side..
It’s been almost 24 years since Everton have won at the Bridge. The bookies have this game as a high scoring one. With both teams having shaky defenses.

Team News:

James McCarthy is a long-term absentee for the Toffees, who are otherwise at full-strength.
Chelsea have s fully fit squad with Hazard back from injury having played in their Europa League game on Thursday.

Sarri made a raft of changes for Thursday’s Europa League tie against BATE Borisov in Belarus and the same can be expected ahead of Sunday’s showdown, with a host of first-team regulars all pushing for an immediate recall.

Prediction:

Everton are in fine form in front of goal. Danger man Richarlison has scored six goals in nine league games so far.

Chelsea are in fine form themselves, still unbeaten this season. They’ve scored in every home league game since January. That’s a total of 18 games.
