With Liverpool beaten at Brighton earlier today and Aston Villa not playing until tomorrow, Chelsea have a chance to move up to fourth for at least tonight with a win here at Everton’s new ground, Hill Dickinson Stadium. We’ve relied on our away record to stay in the hunt for European places (same as Everton), so hopefully that trend continues.
Liam Rosenior has picked Jorrel Hato at center back once again, while Roméo Lavia gets the start next to Moisés Caicedo in midfield. Dário Essugo returns to the bench, along with young Estêvão.
**Everton starting XI:**
Pickford | O’Brien, Tarkowski (c), Keane, Mykolenko, Gana, Garner, McNeil, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndiaye, Beto
_Substitutes from: Travers, Patterson, Barry, Dibling, Coleman, Branthwaite, Röhl, Iroegbunam, Armstrong_
**Chelsea starting lineup (4-2-3-1):**
Sánchez | Cucurella, Hato, Fofana, Gusto | Lavia, Caicedo | Enzo (c), Palmer, Neto | João Pedro
_Substitutes from: Sharman-Lowe, Acheampong, Tosin, Sarr, Essugo, Santos, Estêvão, Garnacho, Delap_
