Everton vs Chelsea prediction 21.03.2026 | Premier League

Everton are finally having a good season after four years in which they came close to the relegation zone. This season, the Toffees are finally looking like a team deserving to be in the upper half of the league's table. At the moment, they are in 8th place with 43 points from 30 matches. Europe could be reached from 7th place, and the Toffees are only two points away from it. However, in order for that to happen, they must do better at home, where they were uncharacteristically bad this season. 

After a 2:0 loss to Arsenal in the previous game, coach David Moyes spoke to the media. He said they gutted after failing to get anything from the match despite a strong display. However, the coach was satisfied with the performance, saying they did a good job over long periods before conceding goals. 

Chelsea have been pretty inconsistent, and it is evident they aren't at the desired level needed to fight for the silverware in the Premier League. After 30 rounds, the Blues are 6th with 48 points from 30 matches, and their main goal is to move to the top four, which is three points away. Their best performances were in the Champions League main phase, but they were unlucky to face last season's champs, PSG, in the 1/8 Finals. That duel humbled the Blues, showing them just how far they are from the very best teams in Europe. 

After a 3:0 loss to PSG in the second leg, coach Liam Rosenior spoke to the media. The coach defended his players, saying the errors are part of football and did not want to single out individuals. He added that they have to eliminate those individual mistakes and improve their consistency.
