----------------------------------
Chelsea
Enzo Maresca has a new injury concern that is hampering his preparations ahead of his side’s latest fixture. The Chelsea manager will be bereft of the services of five first-team players vs Everton on Saturday.
Malo Gusto is the latest absentee after picking up a muscular injury last weekend against Fulham, which might have prematurely ended his 2024/25 campaign. The French full-back has joined Wesley Fofana (hamstring), Omari Kellyman (thigh), and Marc Guiu (hamstring) on the sidelines. Meanwhile, Mykhailo Mudryk remains suspended due to his doping ban.
Robert Sanchez will take his spot between the sticks, with Chelsea lining up in a 4-2-3-1 formation in front of him vs Everton on Saturday. The backline should feature Reece James, Trevoh Chalobah, Levi Colwill, and Marc Cucurella.
As for the midfield unit, there is no looking past Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo in the double pivot. Cole Palmer will likely reprise the no. 10 role, with Pedro Neto and the in-form Tyrique George being the two wide attackers. Finally, Nicolas Jackson will lead the line for Chelsea against Everton on Saturday.
Everton
Like his counterpart in the Chelsea dugout, David Moyes has a new issue to worry about ahead of the trip to Stamford Bridge. The Everton manager will be without five first-team players on Saturday.
James Tarkowski is the latest absentee after picking up a hamstring injury last weekend against Manchester City. The veteran defender will see his run of 111 successive Premier League appearances end, and he has joined Orel Mangala (knee), Jesper Lindstrom (hernia), and Dominic Calvert-Lewin (thigh) on the sidelines. Meanwhile, Armando Broja is ineligible to face his parent club.
Jordan Pickford is an automatic pick between the sticks, with Everton lining up in a 4-2-3-1 formation in front of him vs Chelsea on Saturday. The backline should feature Nathan Patterson, Jake O’Brien, Jarrad Branthwaite, and Vitaliy Mykolenko.
As for the midfield unit, there is no looking past Idrissa Gueye and James Garner in the double pivot. Abdoulaye Doucoure will reprise the no. 10 role, with Jack Harrison and Iliman Ndiaye being the two wide attackers. Finally, Beto will spearhead the Everton attack against Chelsea on Saturday.
Chelsea possible starting lineup:
Sanchez; James, Chalobah, Colwill, Cucurella; Enzo, Caicedo; George, Palmer, Neto; Jackson
Everton possible starting lineup:
Pickford; Patterson, O'Brien, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Harrison, Gueye, Garner, Doucoure, Ndiaye; Beto
Chelsea vs Everton Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
This will be the 194th meeting between the two sides. Chelsea lead 76-60.
Their most recent clash in December 2024 was a goalless stalemate.
Five of their last six head-to-head games have produced less than three goals and also saw at least one side keep a clean sheet.
Everton are winless in 29 visits to Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea are unbeaten in nine home games against sides starting the matchday 10th or below, winning seven.
Prediction: Chelsea 1-0 Everton
No matter what state Chelsea are in, one thing always seems certain, and it is that Everton will not win at the Bridge, and this could be the 30th successive game without defeat for the hosts against the Toffees if they claim a result.
Everton's season is fizzling out slightly, while Chelsea still have it all to play for, so they will be the favourites, but they can expect a scrappy affair, as 12 of the visitors' 16 away games in the Premier League this season have produced two goals or fewer.
