Everton are back in Premier League action this evening as they travel to face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

The Blues will be looking to get back on track after suffering a disappointing 3-1 defeat to Crystal Palace in their last match at the weekend.

Rafa Benitez will be forced to deal with an ever-growing injury list, with yet more players added to the treatment room in recent days.

Richarlison is out with a calf problem, while Seamus Coleman and Andros Townsend also left Selhurst Park with injuries.
