THE LOWDOWN
EVERTON
- Everton stayed up by the skin of their teeth last season, the first time they were engaged in a serious relegation battle for many years and a repeat performance this season is unthinkable, so the pressure is firmly on Frank Lampard and his squad.
- A number of players will miss out here due to injury such as Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Andre Gomes and Andros Townsend, whilst Salomon Rondon is suspended.
CHELSEA
- Chelsea have splashed the cash in the summer transfer window, the likes of Kalidou Koulibaly and Raheem Sterling have all joined the club with Marc Cucurella and others expected to follow as they bid to mount a title charge under Thomas Tuchel.
- Of the current Blues squad, only strikers Timo Werner and Armando Broja are currently doubtful, ironically both have been linked with moves away across the window and neither could be at the club come the end of August.

THE PREDICTION
You can’t help but worry for Everton this season when taking into account that Richarlison, the key attacking player in their survival last season has left for Spurs. At this point, it’s hard to see where the goals are going to come from, which doesn’t bode well against a strong Chelsea side. The Goodison Park crowd will act as somewhat of a leveller, but the reality is that Chelsea are a superior outfit all over the pitch. Therefore, the visitors are well worth backing for victory here, although a smart play would be to do so via the draw no bet market.
TIP: CHELSEA DRAW NO BET
