Chelsea predicted XI: Everton (H)

Chelsea host Everton at Stamford Bridge on Sunday as they look to build on their win over Tottenham.

The Blues beat Spurs 2-1 at Wembley last weekend, thanks to a terrific brace from full-back Marcos Alonso.

Antonio Conte is now looking for his first home win of the season, having lost 3-2 to Burnley on the opening day.

Here is how we expect Chelsea to line-up against Ronald Koeman’s side…

Thibaut Courtois: GK

Made some top saves against Tottenham and could do nothing to prevent Batshuayi’s own goal.

Victor Moses: RWB

Bombed up and down the right side, as always, last week and deserves to start.

Cesar Azpilicueta: RCB

Mr. Consistent.

David Luiz: CB

Produced a dominant display at the back and handled Harry Kane extremely well.

Andreas Christensen: LCB

Is getting his first chance to impress in the first-team and needs to keep performing to keep his place in the side.

Marcos Alonso: LWB

Man of the match last week and one of the best left-sided defenders in the league without a doubt.

N’Golo Kante: CM

Is his position in doubt?

Tiemoue Bakayoko: CM

Bakayoko had a mixed debut last week, giving away some needless fouls, but he did look promising in spells. Expect him to start.

Pedro: RW

Expect Pedro to come back into the side. He’s a born winner and a crucial cog in the machine.

Alvaro Morata: ST

Struggled at times against Tottenham but was still trying to stretch the game and create space. He could have more luck against Everton’s defence.

Willian: LW

Willian has had a strong start to the season and looks to be getting back to his best.
