Chelsea face Everton on Saturday night as they host Everton at Stamford Bridge in hopes of taking all three points in this home game. The Blues come into the game after a 3-1 thrashing of Leicester City, so we can expect them to go into action this weekend with confidence.
Graham Potter is likely to use a 3-4-3 formation and is expected to keep changes to a minimum in this game. Kai Havertz could lead the Blues centrally, while Ruben Loftus-Cheek continued on the right flank in the absence of Reece James.
3-4-3 Predicted lineup for Chelsea vs Everton
defense
Kepa Arrizabalaga will play between the Blues’ two sticks after conceding a goal in his final game. Wesley Fofana, Kalidou Koulibaly and Marc Cucurella can form a back three as they focus on keeping opponents out throughout the game.
Thiago Silva and Cesar Azpilicueta will miss this game. However, Benoit Badiahsile can be an option off the bench as he can provide cover for defensive positions.
midfielder
Enzo Fernandes and Mateo Kovacic will form the midfield for the west London club as they look to dominate possession in the middle of the pitch.
Ruben Loftus-Cheek will continue to play on the right while Ben Chilwell will look to impress on the other side.
Dennis Zakaria and Conor Gallagher will be on the bench as they wait for their chance to make a difference in the second 45 minutes.
attack
Mykhaylo Mudryk and Joao Felix will operate on the left and right flanks respectively as they look to provide support from wide.
Kai Havertz will lead Chelsea in the final third. The Germany striker scored in his final game and is looking forward to another chance for Chelsea this weekend
Mason Mount is sidelined through injury, but Christian Pulisic will be on the bench and could affect games later on if the Blues need to score by then.
