Everton host Chelsea at Hill Dickinson Stadium on Saturday, October 17 (7:30 AM ET \/ 6:30 AM CT \/ 4:30 AM PT).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Everton have a doubt over Vitalii Mykolenko, but the bigger storylines are already up front. Striker Thierno Mamadou Barry has 3 goals from 22 shots this season, and attacking midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has created 15 chances to go with 2 goals, with both expected to lead the home attack. Chelsea arrive without injured Jamie Gittens, sidelined Reece James and sidelined Emmanuel Emegha, but striker Jo\u00e3o Pedro leads their line with 5 goals, while attacking midfielders Morgan Rogers and Cole Palmer add further threat with 4 and 2 goals respectively.<\/p>\n

Everton have not lost all season, with four draws from six games built on a defence that has not been cracked often, and Hill Dickinson Stadium has been a tough watch rather than an open one. Chelsea’s form on the road has been patchier, with defeats at Brentford and Arsenal mixed into their 10-point return, but their attacking depth \u2014 Jo\u00e3o Pedro, Rogers and Palmer all among the goals \u2014 should give them the edge even in a tight contest, with the Signal model landing on a narrow 1-2 win for the visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n
