Chelsea will look to strengthen their position in the race for the Premier League's top five when they welcome Everton to Stamford Bridge in Saturday's early kickoff.

Under-fire manager Enzo Maresca was bailed out by two late goals away to Fulham last week, snatching victory from the jaws of defeat, but that has done little to ease the pressure on the Chelsea boss, who will be suspended from the touchline this weekend.

Head-to-head:

• Chelsea have won 29 of the 65 Premier League meetings between the two teams.
• Everton have recorded 14 victories
• The remaining 22 clashes ended in draws.
• The Blues have won two of their last five matches against Everton.
• The Toffees have only won one of their last five matches against the Blues.
• Enzo Maresca’s men have won two of their last five matches across all competitions.
• Everton conceded 6 in their last visit to Stamford Bridge.

Form:

• Chelsea in the League: L-W-D-D-W
• Chelsea in all competitions: D-W-D-L-W
• Everton in the League: D-L-D-W-L
• Everton in all competitions: D-L-D-W-L

Team News:

• Chelsea will be without the services of Wesley Fofana and Omari Kellyman as they are injured. Marc Guiu, Malo Gusto and Gabriel Slonina’s availability depends on their match fitness.
• Orel Mangala, Jesper Lindstrom, and Dominic Calvert-Lewin are injured and will not be in action for Everton. James Tarkowski’s availability remains doubtful.

Player(s) to watch:

• Pedro Neto will yet again be in action for the Blues. Pedro Neto scored an important match-winning goal for the Blues, due to which they are still in the race to secure a Champions League spot for the coming season. Another top performance will be expected from Neto as the other players are not in the best of form.
• Beto will be one of the main men in the attacking front for the Toffees. He is the only player with the most shots on target this season for Everton. Although he has just scored six goals in 25 appearances, those goals have come in the important moments for his team. Beto will be looking to step up and help the Toffees stand a chance against Chelsea.
