If you’re a Chelsea supporter, then you have to like their chances tomorrow against visiting Everton. The Blues are unbeaten in 23 home Premier League games against Everton (W13 D10) since 1994. Across all competitions, Everton are winless in their last 28 visits to Stamford Bridge (D11 L17).
Thus, an upset here would certainly be monumental for the Toffees. This game will be extremely special for Chelsea midfielder Ross Barkley, as he’s taking on his former team and doing so having become rejuvenated, and in fine form again. Let’s take a look at who else might be joining him in the Blues first team.
Chelsea come into this game in second place, just two points behind table toppers Manchester City. Everton arrive in west London in ninth place, 11 points off the pace of the top.
