Chelsea were struggling a few weeks ago and it looked like Sarri was on his way out of Stamford Bridge. He may well exit in the summer but a run of four wins and a draw have pumped life into their season. They are sixth in the Premier League but three points behind Arsenal with a game in hand. They may not need a top-four finish to reach the Champions League as they eased into the quarter-finals of the Europa League with a 5-0 win at Dinamo Kiev on Thursday. Chelsea have seven points from their last three league games and a 2-1 win at Fulham ended that terrible run of three straight away league losses.

Everton are 11th in the league and that's a disappointing return for them considering how much money they have spent. Last weekend saw them take a 2-0 lead at Newcastle United only to end up losing 3-2. Only one of their last six league games have been won, an away win at Cardiff City who are in the bottom three. At Goodison Park, Everton have won just one of their last eight league matches and that was against Bournemouth whose away record leaves a lot to be desired. Chelsea can get the win here.
