CHELSEA travel to Blues legend Frank Lampard’s Everton this weekend with the Toffees desperate to escape relegation.
Everton are sitting in 18th in the Premier League but they have a game in hand over relegation rivals Burnley.
Chelsea represent a very tough task for Lampard’s side, however, as they’re looking to wrap up a top four finish before their FA Cup final with Liverpool in May.
Lampard is under immense pressure having lost 2-0 in the Merseyside Derby with the Reds last weekend.
And fans will be anxious to secure safety, but Everton have struggled to score or pick up vital wins in the last two months.
Thomas Tuchel will be keen for Chelsea to try and put the game to bed as quickly as possible, but could be in for a noisy afternoon at Goodison Park.

Thomas Tuchel spoke about who would be available for Chelsea’s clash with Man Utd on Thursday.
But it remains to be seen who from the following group will be available for Sunday’s game against Everton.
Tuchel said: “Kovacic, Chilwell and Hudson-Odoi will be out.
“Rudiger and Reece James were in training yesterday, hopefully they will give us another training session for the greenlight tomorrow. Same with Andreas who was sick, we hope. Ross Barkley is sick and won’t be in.”
