Chelsea news as both Paul Merson and Chris Sutton share their predictions on the Blues' Premier League clash Everton on Saturday afternoon
Chelsea have been tipped to beat Everton with little trouble on Saturday by Paul Merson and Chris Sutton.
Former Chelsea striker Sutton has backed Chelsea to continue their recent form. Writing for BBC Sport, he said: "Chelsea seem to be finding a bit of form, at last. Wouldn't it be something if they won the Champions League under Graham Potter, after such a difficult start for him at Stamford Bridge?
"First things first, though, they should take three points on Saturday. Everton are another team who are decent at home but dreadful away. They have a really tough run-in, by the way, so their form on the road will have to improve at some point if they are going to stay out of the bottom three."
Sutton's Prediction: Chelsea 2-0 Everton
Sutton's verdict has been seconded by former Arsenal star Merson, who has been impressed with the turnaround of performances under Potter. "Everton got a fantastic win against Brentford but they have a bunch of hard games coming up, so they really needed to get three points against the Bees. Chelsea, on the other hand, are finally showing signs of clicking under Graham Potter after the Englishman decided to revert to a three-at-the-back formation," he said on Sportskeeda.
"I said it before and I'll say it again - these guys are massive dangers in the UEFA Champions League as there's just too much depth and quality in that squad despite how their league campaign has turned out so far.
Merson's Prediction: Chelsea 3-0 Everton

Potter isn’t the kinda coach Chelsea need, he can’t help the team to turn things around in anyway. With all the qualities of players he have to his disposal he can’t even set up a better playing team up to now, talk less of doing a better substitution, today game and the sub he made indicate that the team and players are beyond his level. Plz just walk away in peace
