Khun Kai: Only half time. I don't want them to win, but I am sure Chelsea will. One goal and Everton fold, and back to old sins.

Calvert-Lewin in the wars early in the half, felled by Kurt Zouma to give Everton a free-kick in the Chelsea half.

Sigurdsson floats the ball in and it is Calvert-Lewin himself rising to head well over.

Another half like that first one is the order of the day for Everton. Chelsea will want far more fight and craft.

The game is back under way. No changes.

Chris Arkwright: Willian taking far too many touches today, a number of times already trying to over play it.

Chris: Once again Chelsea show their inexperience, by not being able to break down team already under pressure. They allow too many goals in and getting a proper. Goalkeeper should be their transfer priority.

Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan is available after suspension, while Oleksandr Zinchenko is fit after knee surgery.

Sergio Aguero has again been ruled out.

Manchester United forward Anthony Martial could make a swift return from the minor injury that caused him to miss Wednesday's win over Spurs.

Paul Pogba's absence because of an ankle problem is set to continue, while fellow midfielder Nemanja Matic is close to a return to fitness.

In case you needed reminding, it is the Manchester derby later. And we've got some early team news for you for that game...

Former Everton boss David Moyes would be the "ideal" manager to take over at Goodison Park, says Mark Lawrenson.

If this is an audition for the Everton gig on a permanent basis, Ferguson has done grand so far. However, our fella Lawro has another opinion on who would be the best man for the job...

So far so good for Big Dunc. A goal he would have been proud of and plenty of fight.

Chelsea have had moments but not enough and haven't been clinical enough when they have.

Digne swings the corner in, but Kurt Zouma heads clear.

Two added minutes. Everton have a corner.

Chelsea are really pushing at the minute. Mason Mount has had a couple of attacks blocked and they are attacking in numbers. Last five minutes they have been piling on the pressure and Everton are really being forced to defend their lead as they count down to half time.

Willian wants too much time. Abraham pulls it back for the Brazilian in the box but instead of shooting he wants more touches and the Blue shirts swarm to clear the danger.

First booking goes to Richarlison for a sliding foul to deny Chelsea breaking into the home half.

Chelsea are getting closer. Pulisic cuts in down the left byline, but his low ball (which is designed for Willian to poke in) is blocked.

More roars from the home side. They sense this is a crucial period for the game.

AheadoftheSport: Richarlison has the qualities to be as good as Rashford, if only he got better service and had better players around him like Martial and Pogba

JaloftheReds: Adrenalin can only take you so far. Thirty minutes in and Everton have no more energy.

The Everton commitment is to be admired. Mount gets a sniff of goal but in comes the sliding Mason Holgate to block. He was one of four men in Blue willing to put their body on the line.
