The Gameweek begins down at the Bridge where Chelsea’s title aspirations will be put to the test by a slick and dangerous Everton outfit.

Beaten in their last two away trips without notching a single goal, Roberto Martinez will be looking to get more from today’s encounter, while his opposite number, Jose Mourinho, will be seeking out a comfortable afternoon’s work prior to the daunting midweek trip to Turkey in the Champions League.

The Chelsea boss fields a strong lineup as John Terry makes a return after sitting out the last two league outings – that boost compensates for the loss of David Luiz through injury. Elsewhere, Mourinho also drafts in Frank Lampard for Ramires – a blow for Eden Hazard’s owners hoping for potential spot-kick returns. Everton initially made just one change in opposition, as Martinez opted for the height of Lacina Traore up front, only for the Ivorian to suffer a hamstring problem in the warm-up; Steven Naismith retains his start, then.

As always, you can look to our Twitter feed for all the teamsheet tittle-tattle ahead of the three o’clock kick-offs, while our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open to allow you to vent in real-time while the action unfolds.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

          Yes. I hate Chelsea. I hate what they`ve done to modern football. And i don`t care for Mourinho. Doesn`t make what i`m saying less true now does it?

      If Hull beat Brighton in the replay at home then it's off.

      Good chance it'll be cancelled but bit of a lottery as both teams have bigger games so there'll be lots of changes.

        True enough, not sure if their style of play permits a forward who wants to score goals though... I get the impression they prefer a forward who lays it back to the midfield.
