Two sides that have endured tough seasons for very different reasons meet here, as Chelsea host Everton at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea do have a FA Cup semi-final against Manchester City to come next weekend but their Premier League campaign has been abysmal, and they are a side looking bereft of consistency and confidence. Everton are scrapping for their Premier League lives, but they are very much the outsiders for this one with most EPL betting apps.

Chelsea vs Everton Analysis
With neither side in great form, this could be a cagey affair at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea
Whilst winning the FA Cup would go some way to saving Chelsea’s season, the problems at Stamford Bridge are wide ranging. Mauricio Pochettino looks to be a man troubled by the role and the results simply aren’t coming in for the blues. Consistency in the Premier League is something that money can’t buy and consequently, Chelsea are no longer seen as front runners for titles with many punters and Premier League betting sites. They will want to put in a show at home here though against Everton.
Team news: Robert Sanchez, Reece James, Ben Chilwell and Wesley Fofana will miss out in this one for the blues.
Chelsea Predicted Lineup:
Dorde Petrovic, Axel Disasi, Malo Gusto, Thiago Silva, Levi Colwill, Moises Caicedo, Conor Gallagher, Raheem Sterling, Enzo Fernandez, Cole Palmer & Nicholas Jackson.
Everton
A total of 8 points have been deducted from Everton this season, 8 points that had they had on their tally, they would be well clear of the relegation picture. Performances of late under Sean Dyche have been a little arduous though but a win over Burnley last weekend has done the Toffees a world of good. This will be a tricky task for Everton, who always look to defend resolutely first, and they will look to stay in the game and play on a lack of confidence in the Chelsea camp.
Team news: Dele Alli continues to be the only significant absentee for Everton this term.
Everton Predicted Lineup:
Jordan Pickford, Seamus Coleman, Ben Godfrey, James Tarkowski, Jarrad Branthwaite, James Garner, Amdou Onana, Jack Harrison, Dwight McNeil, Abdoulaye Doucoure & Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
Chelsea vs Everton Prediction
Staying in the Premier League has been a huge task for Everton over the past couple of seasons and with more points being shaved off them last week, they will have extra motivation to upset Chelsea here. However, the blues need a morale boosting win ahead of their FA Cup semi-final and Chelsea should manage to pick up three points at home here.
Prediction: Chelsea to win the match – 8/11 (-137) – Rhino Bet.
Chelsea vs Everton – The Ultimate Bet
Cole Palmer to score anytime – 6/4 (+150) – Fitzdares
It has been a superb breakthrough campaign for Cole Palmer, who has become a linchpin in this Chelsea side and when they need goals, the former Manchester City man normally delivers them.
