Chelsea takes on Everton on Saturday, Dec. 13, at Stamford Bridge in west London, with kickoff set for 3 p.m. GMT. That makes it a 10 a.m. ET or 7 a.m. PT start in the US and Canada, and a 2 a.m. AEDT kickoff in Australia.
Chelsea enters Saturday on a bit of a whimper on all fronts. After beating Barcelona in UEFA Champions League action last month, the club has gone winless in its past four matches. Along with losing to Leeds United earlier this month, the Blues only have draws against Arsenal and Bournemouth.
Paul: This game showed the importance of Dewsbury-Hall, both in attack and defence. Midfield were found wanting I'm afraid. Tyler Dibling should have been brought on earlier and given a chance. However, we are making steady progress and believe we can get something out of the Arsenal game under the floodlights.
Chelsea made four changes and one would have been cause for concern for Everton with Cole Palmer getting a start. Although Chelsea have not won a game with Palmer on the pitch since early August, Moyes has to remember the 6-0 thrashing where Palmer scored 4. Malo Gusto, Wesley Fofana and Alejandro Garnacho also were back in for the Blues.
Former Premier League player Danny Murphy has stated Chelsea are “blessed” to have Malo Gusto following Saturday’s win against Everton.The Blues returned to winning ways after a four game
