Everton vs. Chelsea Preview (What To Know Before Betting)
Everton vs. Chelsea
Having emerged from a challenging situation, Everton aims for a third consecutive win in the Premier League as they prepare to host Chelsea at Goodison Park in an intriguing Sunday matchup.
Sean Dyche’s team confidently secured a 3-0 victory over Newcastle United on Thursday, contrasting with Chelsea’s ongoing inconsistency, evident in their 2-1 loss to Manchester United the day before.
Just five days after netting the sole goal against Nottingham Forest, Dwight McNeil replicated his success on Thursday against Newcastle, opting to break the deadlock in a similar fashion. Instead of slipping through Dominic Calvert-Lewin, he skillfully picked out the far corner in the 79th minute, triggering a late goalscoring spree for the Toffees.

McNeil’s opener set the stage for a triumphant three-goal victory at Goodison Park, with Abdoulaye Doucoure and Beto also making their mark in the spotlight. Despite the lingering frustration from the 10-point deduction, Everton has remarkably lifted themselves beyond the relegation line to claim the 17th spot. However, the threat of potential challenges from Luton Town and Burnley looms if results don’t favor them this weekend.
What to remember – Everton vs. Chelsea
Sporting a leaky defense and an unpredictably inconsistent attack, Chelsea doesn’t emerge as the favorites as they journey to Merseyside, especially considering their recent struggles at Goodison Park.
While Everton fans may harbor hopes of a third consecutive win, the prospect of the two clubs neutralizing each other is plausible this time, particularly as Chelsea’s wavering form persists.
