    Chelsea v Everton (17:30 GMT)

    No surprises as Chelsea boss Antonio Conte names an unchanged line-up for the third successive game. The Blues have won their previous four Premier League fixtures. 

    That means Pedro retains his place in attack, alongside Diego Costa and Eden Hazard, who scored against Southampton last weekend.

    They’ve got it right at the back. We saw Antonio Conte nearly crying after losing to Arsenal 3-0.

    He was more upset because he was paying a system that he didn’t want to play. They’ve gone back to a back three and it’s worked.

    But the game’s about Romelu Lukaku. I think it’s inevitable that he’ll score.

    Chelsea are proving to be the real deal since they changed formation., external They are genuine title contenders in my opinion.

    Diego Costa looks leaner, Eden Hazard has rediscovered top form now he has license to roam, and Victor Moses has been a revelation at wing-back.

    The new system means that when the other team have the ball, Chelsea revert to five at the back and so it is little wonder they have gone 410 minutes without conceding a goal. The fact Chelsea have no European commitments can only strengthen their title prospects.

    Ronald Koeman is a shrewd manager and I think Everton will finish in the top six. However, they have a poor record at Stamford Bridge and Chelsea have to start as favourites.
