Everton face their second tough fixture in a row but, after holding Arsenal to a goalless draw last weekend, they'll be hopeful of putting up resistance against another of the league's top sides.
Chelsea, however, are the league's top scorers, and while Arsenal have leaned on set-pieces this season, Enzo Maresca's side have terrorised defences with their free-flowing attacking performances.
Chelsea go into this round of fixtures second in the table, with the chance to move top with a win, albeit for a potentially short period as Liverpool prepare to play later on Sunday. Everton, meanwhile, are once again scrapping near the bottom of the table in 16th. At the opposite end of the spectrum to Chelsea, they are the second lowest goal scorers in the league, but they have ground out points when they've been at their organised best in defence.

Can I watch Everton vs Chelsea in the UK?
Unfortunately, for viewers in the UK, Everton vs Chelsea is not being televised in the UK.
The game is being played on Sunday at 2pm but that does not mean it's in a TV slot. In fact, it's because Chelsea were in action on Thursday evening in the UEFA Conference League, meaning a Saturday fixture would not give them adequate time to recover.
At first, the game would have been part of the Saturday 3pm TV blackout in the UK, and it's move to Sunday doesn't change the fact that it can't be shown on TV.
