Everton and Chelsea will put their
respective unbeaten records on the line
when they meet on Saturday Night
Football.
Roberto Martinez has seen his side open with
back-to-back 2-2 draws against Leicester City and Arsenal. He will be disappointed to have seen leads squandered on each occasion, but will be pleased to have seen the goals spread around as record signing Romelu Lukaku waits for his first of the season.
The Belgium international will be determined, if fit, to open his account this weekend, offering another reminder to Jose Mourinho and his former club of what he is capable of and why they were foolish to sanction a £28million sale.
Chelsea have, however, found in Diego Costa –
who is also a doubt for the weekend clash – a
frontman who has hit the ground running in the Premier League and started to justify his own hefty price tag.
The Spain international has been on target in the opening two rounds of fixtures, helping to secure victories over Burnley and Leicester City. With Chelsea sat among the early front-runners, as one of only four sides boasting a 100 per cent record, they will be looking to head into the international break perched at the top of the table and looking down on the rest of their title rivals.
Team news
Everton will assess the fitness of two former
Chelsea strikers, Samuel Eto'o and Lukaku, prior to the Londoners' visit to Merseyside.
Eto'o has been short of match fitness, having only joined the club this week, while Lukaku has had a toe injury. Another player with Chelsea connections, on-loan winger Christian Atsu, cannot face his parent club.
Midfielder Steven Pienaar (groin) is definitely
missing but midfielder Darron Gibson is still
pushing to return after 10 months out. Midfield duo Ross Barkley (knee) and Bryan Oviedo (leg), and striker Arouna Kone (knee) remain sidelined.
Chelsea have been monitoring a ‘minor muscle
injury’ picked up by Costa, amid talk that he
could be ruled out for up to six weeks. With Fernando Torres in discussions regarding a
possible move to AC Milan, Mourinho may soon
find himself short on striking alternatives – with Didier Drogba the only other proven option available to him at present. The Portuguese tactician will also be forced to
shuffle his playmaking pack this weekend, with World Cup winner Andre Schurrle having picked up a leg injury in the victory at home to Leicester.

Any club that beat Everton at home will either be the league leader or runner up. Chelsea just finished playing championship club mimicking as premier league clubs. The premier league match /test just begun with an away trip to goddison park which is a difficult place to get a win.
