Chelsea Recent Form: Last 5
Key Factors
Chelsea is suffering from a massive 'xG crisis', creating 4.10 expected goals in their last two matches without scoring once.
Everton benefits from a full week of rest while Chelsea is physically and mentally drained after a humiliating 8-2 aggregate Champions League exit to PSG.
Chelsea's defense is heavily depleted with key starters like Reece James, Trevoh Chalobah, and Levi Colwill confirmed out.
Injuries & Absentees
Everton is boosted by the likely return of Jarrad Branthwaite to anchor the defense, though Jack Grealish remains out. Chelsea faces a full-blown defensive crisis: Trevoh Chalobah (ankle), Reece James (hamstring), and Levi Colwill (ACL) are sidelined. This forces Liam Rosenior to field a 'patched-up' backline likely featuring Tosin Adarabioyo and Wesley Fofana, who lack consistent chemistry.
