Chelsea are gathering momentum and will go top of the Premier League, for 24 hours at least, with a first win at Goodison Park in four seasons. Last weekend’s 3-1 victory over Leeds, who had inflicted a second successive home defeat on Everton in their previous outing, underlined the impressive range of game-changing attacking options available to Frank Lampard. They will welcome a confrontation with Carlo Ancelotti’s porous defence. Since entering the October international break with a 100% record from seven matches Everton have emerged with only one win from their past seven league games. Andy Hunter
