Everton vs Chelsea - Premier League: TV channel, team news, lineups and prediction

An Everton side buoyed by bursting out of the bottom three after their latest win host tenth-placed Chelsea in the Premier League on Sunday.

The Toffees' 3-0 victory over Newcastle on Thursday night was a major boost for the players and fans. Had they not incurred a points penalty earlier in the campaign, Sean Dyche's side would sit a point ahead of Chelsea coming into this fixture.

Mauricio Pochettino's Blues are already at risk of being cut adrift from the European places, sitting seven points away from Newcastle in seventh and five behind West Ham in ninth. The loss to Manchester United at Old Trafford was another setback manager Pochettino didn't need and this trip to Goodison Park will be far from easy.

Everton were very happy to see Dominic Calvert-Lewin make his return to fitness for the match against Newcastle on Thursday and he should be involved again this weekend.

Amadou Onana, Andre Gomes and Dele Alli are all still out of the frame, while there will be a battle between Seamus Coleman, Nathan Patterson and Ashley Young for the right-back spot. Sean Dyche is expected to pick largely the same team given the good performance against Newcastle and the week of rest that will come after Sunday's game.

Everton predicted lineup vs Chelsea

Everton predicted lineup vs Chelsea (4-4-1-1): Pickford; Coleman, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Young, Doucoure, Gueye, McNeil; Harrison; Calvert-Lewin.

Chelsea have had plenty of injury woes so far this season but a handful of players have outside chances of being ready to return against Everton on Sunday afternoon.

Noni Madueke, Romeo Lavia and Christopher Nkunku could make the squad but none are expected to start. Malo Gusto, Ben Chilwell, Wesley Fofano, Trevoh Chalobah, Carney Chukwuemeka and Lesley Ugochukwu are all firm absentees.

Conor Gallagher will be available again after serving his suspension against Man Utd.

Chelsea predicted lineup vs Everton

Chelsea predicted lineup vs Everton (4-2-3-1): Sanchez; James, Colwill, Silva, Cucurella; Caicedo, Fernandez; Palmer, Gallagher, Sterling; Jackson.

Everton vs Chelsea score prediction

Everton and Chelsea have had very unusual seasons so far for different reasons but it is the Toffees who may come into this match with more confidence.

The inconsistency of both teams makes it a difficult game to predict, but there will be a great atmosphere at Goodison Park and the Toffees will be confident of claiming a result having won four of their last six league games.

There should be goals, but the two sides may well cancel each other out and have to share the points come full-time.

Prediction: Everton 2-2 Chelsea

Every mistake Tottenham & Daniel Levy have made since 2019

Image
For much of Daniel Levy's tenure as Tottenham chairman, he oversaw a lot of undeniable and tangible progress. Spurs were mid-table fodder when ENIC took control of the club in 2001. Since then, they've elevated the club to consistent European contenders (despite a lack of silverware) and have invested in state-of-the-art facilities. But when they viewed the time had come to turn from nearly-men to winners, they took the club backwards again. And again. And again. Here are Levy and the Spurs board's greatest blunders since their peak of reaching the 2019 UEFA Champions League final. 1. Too little, too late in the transfer market Ndombele even scored a worldie on his debut / Marc Atkins/GettyImages This one's a bit of a prelude to this whole debacle, but it still runs true. From 2018 to 2019, Tottenham went nearly 18 months without making a signing. Not one. Zilch. Nada. The board bemoaned that conducting transfer activity was hard. Spurs spent the 2018/19 season running ...

Top scorers on the final day of Premier League seasons

Image
The final day of an invariably long, hard league campaign can be the setting for season-defining matches. However, more often than not, everything of relevance has already been final ised for both clubs involved, giving many of the simultaneous set of matches the care-free recklessness of the last day of primary school. It's no surprise that the final round of matches invariably produces more goals than the average across the preceding nine months of each season . Here are the players, with their favourite toy stuffed into their backpacks, that have taken advantage at the end of each season . 10. Teddy Sheringham - 7 11 years separated Teddy Sheringham's first and last final-day goals in the Premier League / Phil Cole/GettyImages Never blessed with burning pace, timing always underpinned Teddy Sheringham's superb career. By the summer of 2004, aged 38, what little speed Sheringham ever had was long gone - yet, that didn't stop the veteran from coming off the bench to s...

Liverpool handed boost after Barcelona rule managerial target out of race to succeed Xavi

Image
Barcelona sporting director Deco has questioned the credentials of Sporting CP manager Ruben Amorim and effectively ruled him out of the race to replace Xavi this summer. Xavi will stand down from his role as Barca's head coach at the end of the 2023/24 season and there has been plenty of speculation over who his successor will be. Like Barcelona, Liverpool are also on the hunt for a new manager with Jurgen Klopp leaving the club at the end of the season. Both have been linked with 39-year-old Amorim, who has done a stellar job at Sporting since his appointment in 2020, notably leading them to their first Portuguese title in 19 years during his first full season. Xavi's time at Barcelona is nearing an end / Juan Manuel Serrano Arce/GettyImages The Daily Mail recently reported that Amorim will be considered by Liverpool as a Klopp successor. However, he looks unlikely to be in the thoughts of those at Barcelona. During a recent trip to his native Portugal, Deco fielded questi...
