Team News: Juan Cuadrado makes first Chelsea start against Everton

New signing Juan Cuadrado makes his first start for Chelsea in the Premier League encounter with Everton this evening.

Cesc Fabregas has overcome a hamstring problem that kept him out of last weekend's victory at Aston Villa and is named among the substitutes.

However, leading scorer Diego Costa is out as he completes his three-game ban, while John Obi Mikel is sidelined with a knee injury.

Filipe Luis is passed fit, but only makes the bench as Cesar Azpilicueta starts at left-back for the leaders.

Despite keeping three consecutive clean sheets, Joel Robles makes way for a fit-again Tim Howard in the Everton goal.

James McCarthy drops to the bench as Toffees boss Roberto Martinez eases the midfielder back following a recent hamstring injury.

Chelsea: Cech; Ivanovic, Zouma, Terry, Azpilicueta; Ramires, Matic; Cuadrado, Willian, Hazard; Remy

Everton: Howard, Coleman, Stones, Jagielka, Oviedo, Besic, Barry, Lennon, Naismith, Barkley, Lukaku
