In-form Chelsea have the chance to go top of the Premier League table on Sunday afternoon.
Enzo Maresca and his team have been quick to temper expectations amid their long unbeaten run that has thrust them into the title discussion. Unbeaten since October, Maresca's side are two points behind the league leaders Liverpool heading into the weekend's action.
These are the types of games that will define the Blues' campaign, with Goodison Park often proving a tricky place to visit for west Londoners. While the big one Chelsea sides have usually dominated in the blue half of the Mersey, smaller iterations have failed.
Maresca are facing a number of defensive absences going into the game, notably missing Marc Cucurella, Reece Jamea and Wesley Fofana.
Here it is 90 minutes predicted the formation of the Blues.
GK: Robert Sanchez – It hasn't been all plain sailing for Sanchez this season, and he's a player Chelsea will surely be looking to improve. However, the Spaniard was a big reason why they beat Brentford last weekend.
RB: Moises Caicedo – We've seen Caicedo play this role several times this season and Everton's physical midfield could convince Maresca to fill the middle of the park with duel monsters.
CB: Tosin Adarabioyo – With Wesley Fofana and Benoit Badiashile both injured, Tosin is the next player on Chelsea's centre-back depth chart.
CB: Levi Colwill – There has been a revolving door around him, but Colwill has been a constant on the left side of Chelsea's defense this season.
LB: Renato Veiga – Marc Cucurella is suspended, but Maresca has options in reserve. He could opt for Malo Gusto at left-back, but Veiga might be the best fit if Caicedo is shifted from right-back. Veiga has featured heavily in cup competitions this season, but rarely in the Premier League.
CM: Romeo Lavia – Injuries have stalled an otherwise impressive campaign from Lavia, who missed last Sunday's win. However, the midfielder should be fit and available for the trip to Goodison.
CM: Enzo Fernandez – Maresca won't want to have Enzo on the pivot, so he'll free him up by having Caicedo move into midfield from right-back. Fernandez has been one of the standout performers for the Blues in recent weeks, relishing the freedom to pack forward.
RM: Pedro Neto – Neto has yet to catch on in Chelsea colours, but he has certainly flashed his talent and he could be preferred over Noni Madueke on Sunday. Neto was absent from the squad last week.
AM: Cole Palmer – The Blues could do with another Palmer outing similar to his most recent performance against the Toffees. Palmer scored four goals in the 6-0 rout again in April.
LM: Jadon Sancho – Sancho is making this place his own. He has been excellent since returning from injury, and his newfound willingness to shoot will only help his ability as a playmaker.
ST: Nicolas Jackson – Jackson will have to work hard for his chances against a strong one Everton backs who protect their box quite well. The two centre-halves will aim to limit the number of times they are forced to track the Chelsea striker down the channels.
