Chelsea vs Everton - Premier League Preview and Odds

November 11, 2018 14:15pm - Stamford Bridge

Premier League

Chelsea look to have their Europa League group wrapped up following a 1-0 win away to BATE in midweek. They can now turn their attention back to the Premier League where they are just two points behind league leaders Manchester City.

Like City and Liverpool, Chelsea have yet to lose a league game this season having won eight and drawn three of their 11 games. So far this term, only Liverpool and Manchester United have come away from Stamford Bridge with a point so they will be confident heading into this clash.

Star man Eden Hazard has managed seven goals and four assist in just seven starts this season and seems to have recovered from a minor injury, featuring for an hour in midweek. His inclusion on Sunday could make life even more difficult for Everton.

Meanwhile, Everton arrive in London in good form having won four of their last five Premier League matches. Their only defeat came against bogey team Manchester United. No other team has lost more points to Red Devils in the Premier League era than the Merseyside club.

Despite their recent upturn, there are still some question marks over the Toffees ability to mix it with the top guns. They have spent significantly over the last few years but have made little progress in terms of league results. And their foray into Europe last term was a disaster.

There have been signs of improvement under Marco Silva, but it is hard to see them taking anything from a trip to face Maurizio Sarri`s men.

Betting odds and tips

Everton have won just one of their five away games this season and have already lost twice against top six opponents. In that spell, they have yet to keep a clean sheet. As a result, the Home win with Over 2.5 Goals looks tempting.

You can back Over 2.5 Goals at 4/7 or combine it with a Chelsea win for a price of 19/20.
