How did that not go in? A fantastic through-ball for James from Jorginho but with just Pickford to beat he hits the ball wide.

Early on it appears that Mount will play the central forward role with Ziyech on the left and Pulisic on the right.

Everton get the game underway...
19:39
Will be interesting to see Ellis Simms on his debut for the Toffees. This is him in action for Blackpool on loan last year.
19:29
Just to confirm the Chelsea Covidees...
19:25
Chelsea's price has gone out a bit with the team news, which seems a little strange given Everton's injury issues. The hosts are 1/5, the draw is 6/1 and Everton as big as 18/1.
19:15
Everton do not have as bad Covid issues but their injury crisis means youngsters Kenny, Branthwaite and Simms all start.
19:05
So Chelsea, with three additional players down with Covid, look like they will play Christian Pulisic in a false nine position today. Interesting...
18:55
These are the Toffees who will start the game in 50 minutes' time.
18:50
This is how Chelsea are lining up...
