Paul Merson has revealed the club he’s backing to win the clash between Everton and Chelsea this weekend.
The Blues will travel to Goodison Park to take on Sean Dyche’s men after the disappointment of Wednesday.
Chelsea lost 2-1 to Manchester United at Old Trafford, and will have to provide a reaction in their next game.
Paul Merson however thinks that Mauricio Pochettino’s side is still missing something, and has now backed Everton to pick up another win, following their 3-0 victory over Newcastle on Thursday.
Merson told Sportskeeda: “Everton are a much better team away from home, but I think they will beat Chelsea this time around. Mauricio Pochettino’s side are missing something, I can’t quite point my finger at it. They did well against Man City but were absolutely blown away by Newcastle, particularly in the second half.
“Manchester United also got the better of them, so it’s not been an easy few weeks for Chelsea. I’ve never seen a team with such high-quality players give the ball away as much as Chelsea did against Manchester United, so things aren’t going well for them at the moment.
“I’d be shocked if Chelsea won this game. Everton are creating enough chances, but they haven’t put many of them away. However, I think they’ll do enough to secure a comfortable win this weekend.
“Prediction: Everton 3-1 Chelsea.”
