Everton vs Chelsea Predictions & Betting Tips (Premier League)
by Daniel Ngulu
Everton finished just four points above the relegation region last season and they will be targeting a better campaign this time. They start off their Premier League campaign with a home game against Chelsea, both teams having had some turbulence in preseason. The two sides have strengthened ahead of this game, with defender James Tarkowski coming from Burnley the highlight signing for Everton while Raheem Sterling from Manchester City has been the top mover for Chelsea. Everton won their final two preseason games, and Chelsea beat Udinese to wrap up their preseason activity. With four straight home wins in the league against Chelsea, the hosts will be fired up for this but then they will be without Richarlison, the man who has scored three times in those four matches. The Brazilian has moved to Tottenham Hotspur.

Form Analysis
Everton had a poor run last season but even at their worst, they didn’t lose to Chelsea in the two league games they faced off. The Toffees won their last two matches in preseason and will be banking on this run to extend here, but defensively they’ve been poor. A shaky backline has been the concern for Chelsea too, and especially after failing to keep a clean sheet in the four preseason games. With the defensive numbers the two sides take into this game, over 2.5 goals is a possibility.

Our Everton vs Chelsea prediction
Chelsea haven’t been the free spenders of the previous campaigns but acquiring Raheem Sterling will assure of some quality in attack. It is however the departures of Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger that will dominate the pre-match talk especially with the poor runs in defence in preseason. Everton haven’t also done well defensively, with just a clean sheet in their last five games. For both teams, over 2.5 goals has been recurrent in their games and with their shortcomings in defence, we see the same outcome here.
