Chelsea vs Everton with predictions, team updates, and key match notes.
Everton Visit Chelsea At Stamford Bridge
Chelsea walk into this game knowing they’ve drifted from the standards they set early this season. Three games without a win have pulled them out of the title talk. That has dropped them into the scramble for the top four. The setback at Leeds hit hard, and the home crowd will expect a response.
Even with the slump, the squad still carries enough quality to control games. The bigger worry is rhythm. They’ve created chances but lacked precision in both boxes, and that’s the part Enzo Maresca knows must change fast. This fixture feels like a chance to steady the ship.
Meanwhile, Everton arrive with their confidence restored. Their recent run shows a side willing to fight for every inch, and results have followed. They’ve tightened up at the back, stuck to their plan, and started taking their chances again.

Across PL history, Chelsea have had a small edge in this fixture. They have won more often and scored freely at home. Everton have caused problems in patches, but Stamford Bridge has rarely been kind to them. Recent meetings also lean in Chelsea’s favour, especially when they dictate the tempo.
Match Prediction:
This feels like a tight one. Chelsea need the win more, and that urgency should show. Everton will make it a grind, but the Blues’ extra quality in the final third could be the difference.
Predicted Score: Chelsea 2–1 Everton.
The West London side should take this if they play with purpose. Everton will test their nerve, but the home side’s need for a reaction should push them over the line.
