Everton v Chelsea rounds off a busy day of Premier League football.

Kick-off at Goodison Park is at 17:30 BST.

Chelsea’s line-up is identical to the one that took on Udinese last Friday, with one exception: the Barcelona-bound Marcos Alonso is replaced by Ben Chilwell at left wing-back.

New signing Marc Cucurella is among the substitutes, while Raheem Sterling makes his competitive Blues bow in a front three with Mason Mount and Kai Havertz.

Everton are also parading two summer recruits in the shape of James Tarkowski and Dwight McNeil, who make Frank Lampard’s starting XI.

Dele Alli doesn’t get the nod up top despite Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Salomon Rondon missing out through injury and suspension, with Anthony Gordon initially starting as the nominal spearhead.

GAMEWEEK 1 LINE-UPS

Everton XI: Pickford, Patterson, Mina, Godfrey, Tarkowski, Mykoleko, Doucoure, Iwobi, Gordon, McNeil, Gray.

Chelsea XI: Mendy, James, Azpilicueta, Thiago Silva, Koulibaly, Chilwell, Kante, Jorginho, Mount, Havertz, Sterling.

    Chelsea will struggle for top four on this performance.

    1. Fish up a tree
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 day ago

      Terrible going forward

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 day ago

      They'll struggle with

      Manchester City
      Liverpool
      Spurs

      And if Arsenal keep it together.

      For sure.

      Sterling needs to explode.

          Ah, makes sense now!

  14. The Train Driver
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 day ago

    Not the best BB with 10 points + Mendy points left, pretty decent tho.

    However, the decision to BB made me pick some other players which scored much more than the more expensive ones I would have chosen otherwise.

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 day ago

      Worked out well.

      Do you have any Manchester City or Bowen?

    2. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 day ago

      Got lucky then! Congratulations!

    3. HashAttack
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 day ago

      10 points with Rashford still to play (Pope, Bailey and Aaronson) .. I'll take it, usually planning a BB costs me at least 8 points

  15. A. PRISE
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 day ago

    Can't wait to sell all my Chelsea players. What a useless team

  16. Hattrick Harry
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 1 day ago

    Alli my differential coming in

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 day ago

      Reaching

      1. Hattrick Harry
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 1 day ago

        scoring hopefully

  17. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 day ago

    Delle Alli

    What could happen? Anything or zilch.

  18. Dynamic Duos
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 day ago

    Iwobi, McNeil, Gray and Gordon all started and Dele was on the bench, ok Fat Frank, top manager you lol, Everton getting relegated

  19. TomSaints
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 day ago

    Urgh such an annoying yellow.
    Probably costs a bp too

  20. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 day ago

    It would be rude of James not to join Trent & Robbo on a point apiece!

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 day ago

      5/6 is welcome.

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 1 day ago

        Guaranteed he's conceding now.

    2. Botman and Robben
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 day ago

      He won't.

  21. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
