Chelsea vs Everton preview: Blues distracted from European competition The Toffees defend against the counter-attack to pick up points

At 19:30 on the evening of April 26, Beijing time, in the 34th round of the English Premier League, Chelsea hosted Everton.

Chelsea vs Everton, the highlights of the match are as follows:

First:Situation of both teams！ After 33 rounds of the Premier League, Chelsea ranked sixth with 57 points with 16 wins, 9 draws and 8 losses, 2 points behind the Champions League zone; Everton are 13th with 38 points from 8 wins, 14 draws and 11 losses, which is a no-brainer ranking. In the last round of the Premier League, Chelsea defeated Fulham 2-1 away and won the first win in the last three league rounds; Everton suffered a 2-0 defeat at home to Manchester City, suffering their second defeat in 13 league games.

Second:The Blues were distracted by the European game, and the Toffees held back to earn points！ With the European semi-finals coming up next week, Chelsea will be a distraction when they travel to Jorgygarden in the first leg of the Europa League semi-final. While Chelsea will be more motivated than Everton in the Premier League due to their contention for a Champions League spot, the Blues are not very capable of attacking battles, with Palmer suffering a three-month goal drought and manager Maresca suspended. Everton are very physical, and if they show weakness away from home and defend steadily, Chelsea will not be able to fight hard, and with the Europa League game in midweek, Chelsea are likely to drop points at home.

The two sides have played each other in the past 6 times, with 2 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses.

Injuries on both sides: Chelsea haveWesley Fofana, Kellyman, Giu； Everton hasLewin, Mangala, Lindström, Tarkovsky。
