CHELSEA host Everton as they look to get their European charge back on track.
The Blues were held 2-2 by Bournemouth in their last Premier League outing and have won just one of their last five top-flight matches.

Frank Lampard eased any pressure though with a morale-boosting FA Cup win over Liverpool in midweek and victory here would put the Blues 11 points ahead of the visitors.
Everton are looking to make a late charge for Europe themselves, but are winless in two after being beaten at Arsenal and held at home by Man Utd.

What is the team news?
CHELSEA currently have a packed treatment room and Lampard gave his side Wednesday off following their FA Cup heroics.
Jorginho is suspended, while N’Golo Kante and Mateo Kovacic are both big doubts for the Toffees visit.
While Tammy Abraham misses out again, with Christian Pulisic also on the sidelines.
Lucas Digne is back in full training for the Toffees and the full-back could make his first appearance in the league since February 8.
Everton are still missing Jean-Philipppe Gbamin and Morgan Schneiderlin, who are out long-term.
But the visitors are hopeful Seamus Coleman could play some part as they look for a first win against Chelsea in the capital in over 23 years.
