However, their 2-0 loss to Arsenal last weekend exposed some late-game weaknesses, with most of their recent goals conceded coming after the 60th minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite that setback, the Toffees have shown resilience at home. They will be eager to build momentum at Hill Dickinson and secure back-to-back home wins for the first time this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chelsea, on the other hand, is in freefall. A humiliating 3-0 loss to PSG in the UEFA Champions League saw them crash out 8-2 on aggregate. That result extended their poor run to just one win in seven matches, putting their top-five ambitions in danger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Defensively, the Blues are struggling. They have gone eight league games without a clean sheet, raising major concerns ahead of this trip to Merseyside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83d\udcca Head-to-Head Record<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Everton have historically enjoyed this fixture at home:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Won 5 of their last 8 home league games vs Chelsea<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lost just once in that run<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>However, Chelsea won the reverse fixture earlier this season<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, Chelsea have kept clean sheets in the last four meetings, showing they can frustrate Everton despite recent struggles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83d\udcc8 Key Stats and Trends<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Everton have <strong>not beaten a top-10 side at home this season<\/strong> (D1, L5)<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Everton conceded <strong>6 of their last 7 goals after the 60th minute.<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chelsea\u2019s last 10 away games: <strong>8 produced over 3.5 goals<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chelsea are <strong>winless in their last 3 matches<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 Expect goals, especially in the second half, where both teams tend to open up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83c\udf1f Players to Watch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jordan Pickford (Everton)<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong> The England goalkeeper has an impressive record against Chelsea, with seven clean sheets.
