Chelsea vrs Everton, 12:45

gosplan

Most likely a Chelsea win. No lukaku.

However Chelsea have struggled against good defences and anyone who can mark Hazard out of the game and not concede to Ivanovoc or Terry at a set piece.

Everton's last real chance to realistically think about top 4.

Are even the Liverpool fans now rooting for Everton?

Alfred Borden

Chelsea to get the three points here

0-0 and a load of injuries and redcards would be just grand

Having a sneaking suspicion Everton can get something from this game.

1:1 suits me. Mirallas & Oscar

Same as myself. Coleman V Hazard will decide this tie I reckon

joe123

Draw please!

mike65

Chelsea XI: Cech; Ivanovic, Terry, Cahill, Azpilicueta; Matic, Lampard; Willian, Oscar, Hazard; Eto'o

Everton XI Howard, Baines, Distin, Jagielka (c), Coleman, Barry, McCarthy, Pienaar, Osman, Mirallas, Traore

Alfred Borden

When will Chelsea burn out? He nearly picks the exact same team for every game.

kev1.3s

1-0 chelsea for me

MaroonAndGreen

Going to be very tight id say, massive game for Chelsea they really have to win.

Im going with 2-1 Chelsea. Etoo to score both in a big game again.

GavRedKing

Everton have a genuine threat here but I'd still expect us to win a nervy game, 2-1.

Ivanovic to score on his 30th birthday would be nice for all involved.

We've had a week off while City and Arsenal played UCL mid week, we'll be grand.

We we're jaded against City as they had a week off and it showed as they won at a canter.

Just strange that he doesnt make a change or two just to freshen up some legs. Probably play the same 11 for these three games this week now.

Ramires will come back in in midweek and possibly Torres.

Lamps and JT are changes from the last game, Oscar is back in too.

Dont worry we dont have a small squad to select from, we'll be grand.

A draw would be ideal. Everton have a decent record here, but unfortunately I see Chelsea doing just enough to get by. 2-1.

MaroonAndGreen

Interesting to see how Hazard fares out up against Coleman, Hazards been slightly below par for his amazing standars in the past few games.

Also want to see Oscar get back to form today, not hit his best form in a while.

Theyved lost the last 2 league games here 2-1 & 3-1 before that the last time the lost in the league at the Bridge was 05/06.

They're certainly more than capable of nicking a point, I just hope our mid week rest is god enough to see us over the line.

Draw would be ideal, but if one team has to win i'd prefer if it was a Chelski win please.

Traore out in warm up and Barkley on the bench is good news for us.

Yup.

GavRedKing

some of our passing has been very sloppy

Johner

Everton the better side so far.

niallo27

Maybe Chelsea are a small horse. Look very ordinary so far

Johner

Everton are dominating midfield, Lampard non existant so far.

Sign of champions is to not play well and win, I'd take a bad performance and 3 points all day.
