Everton play host to Chelsea at the Hill Dickinson Stadium this weekend.
Opta’s supercomputer expects Chelsea to beat Everton, although the visitors have been in really poor form.
Liam Rosenior’s side were thumped 8-2 on aggregate by PSG in the Champions League, and they’ve only won one of their last five Premier League games.
So, Everton should fancy their chances of three points, which could move them into a European spot.
During the clash, David Moyes may actually have a close eye on one Chelsea star.

David Moyes will have an eye on Chelsea’s Liam Delap this weekend
Everton have shown a fresh interest in Liam Delap, having held talks to sign him during the last summer transfer window.
Delap has really struggled in the capital this season, netting just one goal in the Premier League, which has thrown his future into doubt.
The 23-year-old is often used as a late substitute, so Moyes will be able to scout his striking target up close.

It has been reported that Chelsea want to give Delap more time to settle before making a decision on his future.
Other outlets have stated that Delap could be allowed to leave on loan, although Everton should be signing a striker permanently so they can plan long-term.
Alexander Sorloth is believed to be on Moyes’ radar after his prolific season in La Liga with Atletico Madrid.

Fulham frontman Raul Jimenez is also an option for the Toffees and could be available on a free transfer in the summer.
Jimenez’s contract expires in June.
