Chelsea vs Everton: Premier League Prediction (26.04.2025)

On Saturday, April 26 at 16:30 Astana time, Chelsea will host Everton at Stamford Bridge in London in a Matchday 34 clash of the 2024–2025 English Premier League. The hosts currently sit sixth in the table with 57 points and remain in the hunt for a top-five finish that would secure UEFA Champions League qualification. The visitors, meanwhile, are stuck in mid-table with little at stake—sitting 13th, comfortably clear of both European places and the relegation zone.

This Chelsea vs Everton prediction considers the strong motivation on the part of the home side. Bookmakers also favor the Blues: Chelsea to win is priced at 1.61, a draw at 3.92, and an Everton win at 6.35. The over 2.5 goals market is set at 1.96, signaling expectations for a moderately scoring encounter. The odds for both teams to score are 1.94.

Chelsea

Under Enzo Maresca, Chelsea have taken eight points from their last four league fixtures. A home draw with bottom-placed Ipswich and a 1–2 loss to Legia—albeit in a match with no consequences—suggest lingering inconsistency. While a narrow away win over Fulham kept their top-five hopes alive, it raised concerns as Chelsea only found the net in the final moments. The attacking unit of Pedro Neto, Cole Palmer, Nicolas Jackson, and Chukwunonso Madueke has not consistently delivered across full matches.

Everton

David Moyes’ return to Everton has yet to bring a major impact. The team has settled into a mid-table position without real aspirations. In their last eight games, they’ve won once and lost only twice—against Liverpool (0–1) and Manchester City (0–2). Notably, their draw against Nottingham Forest showed they’re still capable of frustrating higher-ranked opponents.

Head-to-Head & Stats

Since 2022, the sides have faced off six times, with two wins each. Earlier this season in Liverpool, they played to a goalless draw.

Prediction

The last five meetings between these teams have averaged 12.2 corners. With high stakes for Chelsea, expect them to be aggressive in attack, while Everton may seek to capitalize on counterattacks. Our bet: Total corners over 9.5 at 1.70 odds.
