Chelsea can welcome in Christmas from the top of the table with a win and Liverpool dropping points later against Spurs, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves. A win at Goodison is far from given, even if Everton aren’t very good.
Enzo Maresca has selected as strong of a lineup as injuries currently allow us to do, including a sligthly different look for the backline.
Here we go!
Everton starting XI:
Pickford | Young, Tarkowski (c), Branthwaite, Mykolenko, Gana, Mangala, Harrison, Ndiaye, Doucouré, Calvert-Lewin
Substitutes from: Virginia, Patterson, Keane, Beto, O’Brien, Chermiti, Coleman, Lindstrøm, Armstrong
Chelsea starting lineup (4-2-3-1):
Sánchez | Colwill, Disasi, Tosin, Gusto | Enzo (c), Caicedo | Sancho, Palmer, Neto | Jackson
Substitutes from: Jörgensen, Veiga, Acheampong, Casadei, Madueke, George, Félix, Nkunku, Guiu
