Soccercorner.org - Chelsea need to establish the existence of their slick game at home to Everton on Saturday (16/1). The Blues need the current winning streak in the Premier League as a sign of resurrection.
After Jose Mourinho left the club, Chelsea did not defeat. But they only recorded two wins alone (2 wins and 3 draws).
Chelsea's ambition to rise also supported by the fact if they are unbeaten in 20 Premier League matches last entertain Everton (11 wins and 9 draws). The latter, Guus Hiddink also had a lot of injuries when compared to the visitors.
Hiddink is only concerned about the condition Falcao and Eden Hazard. Special Hazard, he still had a chance to play depending on fitness.
If Hazard had a fit, most likely Pedro will be shifted from the position starter. Former Barca player is playing badly in the game against West Brom.
In the defensive midfield position, Hiddink will retain the duo Obi Mikel and Cesc Fabregas. By doing so, Nemanja Matic will start the game on the bench.
From the opposite camp, Roberto Martinez lost at least six players due to injury. That number will increase if Tom Cleverley is still not able to play because not fit.
In the midst of the storm injury, Martinez had to rack my brain with existing squad, starting with John Stones shifted to the right back position. Leon Osman could occupy the right wing position with Deulofeu who shifted to the left if Tom Cleverley can not play.
Line Up Predictions:
Chelsea (4-2-3-1): Courtois; Azpilicueta, Zouma, Terry, Ivanovic; Mikel, Fabregas; Hazard, Oscar, Willian; Costa.
Everton (4-2-3-1): Howard; Baines, Mori, Jagielka, Stones; Besic, Barry; Cleverley, Barkley, Deulofeu; Lukaku.
