Everton will be looking to leapfrog Chelsea into the top four when they travel to Stamford Bridge for Monday’s Premier League clash.
The Toffees are a point adrift of their hosts in fifth place with a game in hand, having won seven and lost none of their last nine league games on the road.

However, without a win in 29 visits to this ground, Everton are 11/2 (6.50) outsiders with bet365 to give their Champions League credentials a massive boost by coming out on top here for the first time since 1994.
Thomas Tuchel’s men have won seven and lost none of their 10 matches in all competitions since he replaced Frank Lampard and are 11/20 (1.55) to extend that record with another victory.
Two of the hosts’ four home games under their new manager have resulted in draws, and you can get odds of 3/1 (4.00) on them playing out another stalemate in this one.

Chelsea vs Everton Preview
Having struggled for consistency in their season and a half under Lampard, the Blues look a far more assured outfit since making the change in the dugout.
The former PSG manager’s controlled, possession-based game has seen them concede only twice in 10 fixtures, albeit scoring just 11 times at the other end of the pitch.
A tight tactical battle looks likely against Carlo Ancelotti’s team, which has won the last three matches without conceding and kept four clean sheets in the last six meetings between the sides.
Chelsea vs Everton Tips and Predictions
With advantage in the race for the top four at stake, odds of 4/5 (1.80) seem reasonable on under 2.5 goals being scored for Chelsea’s 10th match in 11 under Tuchel and the fifth game in six for Everton.
