Chelsea F.C. vs Everton F.C. Prediction 26 April 2025
Added on 24 April, 2025
Saturday’s Premier League action kicks off in London, where Chelsea will host Everton in the opening game of Matchday 34.
After a hard-fought 2-1 win over Fulham, Chelsea continue their chase for a Champions League spot. The Blues sit sixth with 57 points and a 58:40 goal difference. Prior to their derby victory, they experienced a mixed run of form—falling to Arsenal (0:1), narrowly defeating Tottenham (1:0), drawing with Brentford (0:0), and being held to a 2:2 draw by Ipswich.
Everton, meanwhile, have had a tough schedule but held their own. The Toffees suffered narrow defeats against Liverpool (0:1) and Manchester City (0:2), picked up draws against West Ham and Arsenal (both 1:1), and secured a narrow 1:0 win over Nottingham Forest. They currently sit in 13th place with 38 points and a goal difference of 34:40.
Under David Moyes, Everton have leaned into a pragmatic approach, often prioritizing structure and discipline over flair. Chelsea, too, have become more cautious in their style. Given the tactical tendencies of both sides and their recent scoring records, this matchup is unlikely to produce a goal-fest. A low-scoring affair seems the most probable outcome at Stamford Bridge.
