Team News
Everton
- Deadline day loan signing Romelu Lukaku is unavailable to face his parent club Chelsea.
- Antolin Alcaraz and Darron Gibson are lacking match fitness and won't be available here.
- Gareth Barry and James McCarthy will provide other options after deadline day moves to Goodison, though the latter picked up a knock on international duty in midweek and is a doubt.
- Seamus Coleman is also a doubt after returning to Everton with a knock.
Chelsea
- Chelsea return to league action for the first time in over 2 weeks, with Oscar and Hazard doubtful after missing international games in midweek. Both stand a good chance of recovering in time, though.
- John Terry should be back in the starting lineup after sitting out the Super Cup loss to Bayern Munich before in the international break.
- Willian and Samuel Eto'o were late additions at Chelsea and will be hoping for a chance to showcase their skills.
Match Facts
Prediction
- Chelsea's Super Cup loss to Bayern Munich was quickly forgotten in the midst of the international break, and they'll need to be back on form for this tough trip to Goodison Park.
- Their win here last season was their first in 5 attempts in the Premier League; they had only scored once in their previous 4 visits.
- Everton, meanwhile, have drawn all three of their Premier League games so far this season, and facing a side against whom they have a good record, we could be in for another stalemate.
