Find predictions, team news and betting tips for the Premier League match between Chelsea and Everton on Saturday 26th April (12:30pm BST).
Tip 1
Everton’s last seven games have seen two or fewer goals in them, and in fact, only 4/15 fixtures have produced 3+ goals since David Moyes returned to Goodison Park.
Defensive stability has been the foundation of Everton’s rejuvenation under the Scotsman, and Chelsea will find them tough to break down as both Arsenal and City have done recently.
Although Chelsea’s last two league games have broken this bet, the four preceding them met this line, while the pair’s previous meeting in December also finished within these boundaries in a contest which ended 0-0.

Tip 2
Toffees top scorer Iliman Ndiaye has seven goals and is a very attractive price at 5/1 to notch another at Saturday lunchtime.
He is undoubtedly Everton’s biggest threat, boasting exceptional ball control, cunning dribbling and a rarely seen directness trait in the modern game.
Since Moyes rejoined the club he has netted four times in nine appearances, and after registering five shots on target in his last three outings versus Arsenal, Nottingham Forest and Manchester City, the forward is worth backing to breach a Chelsea defence who’ve shipped six in their last three.

The Blues remain firmly in contention for a Champions League place among four other teams, helped by last Sunday’s dramatic conclusion to their 2-1 win over Fulham in the derby.
Marc Guiu is set to be out for at least another week before returning from a hamstrung injury, joined by Wesley Fofana, Omari Kellyman, David Fofana and Aaron Anselmino, who are all excluded from Enzo Maresca’s selection process.
Chelsea Predicted XI: Sanchez; James, Chalobah, Colwill, Cucurella; Fernandez, Caicedo; Madueke, Palmer, Neto; Jackson.
Although David Moyes’ side put in a valiant effort at home to the reigning PL champions last time out, City were able to produce two late goals to walk away from Goodison Park with maximum points.
The Toffees are still without the availability of long-term absentees Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Orel Mangala and Jesper Lindstrom for the trip to Stamford Bridge.
Everton Predicted XI: Pickford; O’Brien, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Garner, Gueye; Harrison, Doucoure, Ndiaye; Broja.
