Everton vs Chelsea Prediction and Betting Tips | 6th August 2022

The Premier League returns to the fold with a set of fixtures to start the new season as Everton lock horns with Thomas Tuchel's Chelsea side at Goodison Park on Saturday.

Everton vs Chelsea Preview

Everton finished in 16th place in the Premier League standings last season and have endured a shocking slump over the past year. The Toffees eased past Dynamo Kyiv with a 3-0 scoreline last week and will need to take it up a notch in this fixture.

Chelsea, on the other hand, secured a third-place finish last season and are in a transitional phase at the moment. The Blues defeated Udinese with a convincing 3-1 result in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.
