Match summary
This Everton - Chelsea fixture in the Premier League is scheduled for 17 October 2026 at Hill Dickinson Stadium, Liverpool. Hosts Everton face Chelsea in round 7. The market favourite is Chelsea, with an implied probability of roughly 47 percent for an away win.
Form analysis and trajectory
- Everton: unbeaten across their last five league matches, a run made up of four draws bookended by a single win, with the most recent outing ending level. Their season profile shows control rather than volatility: eight goals scored and only five conceded across six matches, indicating compact defensive structure but modest chance creation. An average team rating of 7.73 suggests consistent individual performances underpinning this stability.
- Chelsea: results have swung from win to loss, then draw, loss, and a win most recently, pointing to inconsistency rather than a clear upward or downward trend. The numbers lean attacking: 15 goals scored in six but 13 conceded, a high-event style that exposes them defensively. Their average team rating of 7.36 trails Everton’s, reinforcing the picture of strong attacking output offset by defensive lapses.
