Team News: Everton vs. Chelsea injury, suspension list, predicted XIs

Everton welcome Chelsea to Hill Dickinson Stadium on Saturday lunchtime, aiming to move past a frustrating 2-2 draw with Hull City and extend their unbeaten start to the Premier League season.  

The Toffees face a rejuvenated Blues side buoyed by a 5-1 thrashing of Bournemouth that ended their three-match winless run, even if the visitors have gone 22 top-flight games without a clean sheet and suffered defeat in six of their last nine visits to the blue half of Merseyside.
