A good game to finish off Saturday's action and, rather interestingly, priced up exactly the same as the fixture before it. Chelsea travel to Everton as odds-on favourites and they are fancied to capitalise on the Toffees' recent poor form. Just one of their last seven has ended in victory.
Chelsea finished their Champions League campaign with a disappointing 1-1 draw against Krasnodar but they have now gone 14 games without seeing defeat, although you can stretch that to 17 games if you count the defeat on penalties to Tottenham as a draw in 90 minutes.
We have mentioned it before but Chelsea's fixtures haven't been too difficult and they have failed to beat those teams around them. That could be a problem when we talk about them as potential title contenders, but at least a game against Everton gives them a chance to continue the unbeaten run.
Goals are expected here given the attacking showings from both teams and over 2.5 goals is available at a very short 4/7. Both sit inside the top-five for xGF this season and both have already hit 20 goals after just eleven games. Everton's inability to keep clean sheets perhaps makes them more vunerable.
There's no arguing against the threat that the attacking trio of Richarlison, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and James Rodriguez bring. Rodriguez has failed to record a goal or assist across his last five games but, as Paul Macdonald explains here, that doesn't mean that his performances have dropped to an unacceptable level.

The highlight of the Premier League weekend comes at Old Trafford with the Manchester derby putting United up against City after contrasting weeks so far. City progressed to the Champions League round of 16 as group winners, United will finish the season in the Europa League after finishing behind PSG and RB Leipzig - that is despite winning three of their first four games.
City are odds-on for success here but, even with their problems and inconsistency under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, United have found ways to get the better of Pep Guardiola's men. The red side won in the last Old Trafford meeting and also won at the Etihad in the Carabao Cup around a month earlier.
That should make this an interesting battle, and as much as I don't like to buy into the 'form goes out the window in derbies' cliche, we have to acknowledge that United have done well in this fixture in recent times. Guardiola knows that, and he has acknowledged that Solskjaer can get his tactics spot on in the past.
This goes back to the point we have made in previous previews that you can't really argue the point in backing Manchester United to win football matches, but yet, despite seemingly jumping from crisis-to-crisis, they do keep picking up points.
They are awful yet they are brilliant, often across the space of 90 minutes. It is almost like a goal or two for the opposition kicks them into gear but it's just not a sustainable approach and this is why we are here. United have good parts about them, Bruno Fernandes is exceptional, yet he could score a hat-trick and we'd still be saying "well yes but the United defending."
That is outlined in the fact that Manchester United have only been winning at half-time in one of their last six games across all competitions, that being an expected win at home to Istanbul Basaksehir. They keep making slow starts and as better teams have shown, they can punish that.
With that in mind, the 7/5 best price available on City to be winning at half-time looks really good value. United keep making poor starts and they are showing no signs of that coming to an end. It may not be a completely open and free-scoring game, but City can certainly start the better of the two sides.
Even with City winning at the break, we shouldn't be overly surprised to see if United find a way to get back into the contest and potentially win it. It totally depends on what United team turns up, it's almost a mystery at this point, but poor first-half performances remain the one rare consistency at the moment.
Score prediction: Manchester United 1-1 Manchester City ()

Wolves haven't made the storming start to the season that perhaps some expected. They sit tenth with 17 points after eleven games, just two points above Aston Villa who have played two games less.
Given Liverpool's injury problems, Wolves had a good opportunity to get something at Anfield last week but failed to put in a performance that was anywhere near their usual levels. They were hammered 4-0 by Jurgen Klopp's side, a result that could well change their approach to this game as they look to keep things tight.
Whether they go for three at the back or a back four remains to be seen but they will not be wanting to concede anywhere near as many as they did last time out. Wolves' goal difference now stands at -4, only four teams have also scored fewer goals than Nuno Espirito Santo's men.
