Chelsea meets Everton, in the a Replay of the 4th Round in FA Cup. Besides this 2 teams and Manchester City v Notts, everyone else plays the 5th round.
The first game on Goodison Park ended 1:1, which now gives the advantage to Chelsea, playing at home on Stamford Bridge. Before this game, Everton and Chelsea have had 5 consecutive draws.
Chelsea has had a rough time so far, after 2 consecutive wins, in the Premier League, the team recorded a loss against Liverpool here, and a draw against Fulham. The team has a game against Copenhagen on Wednesday in Champions League, and will most likely try to save the starters and play a bit with the reserves here.
Everton on the other hand doesn’t participate in any tournaments. The winner of the FA Cup gets to participate in Europa League, so this might be another reason for them to try harder here.

Everton has never beaten Chelsea on Stamford bridge in the last 16 years. The team has recorded 10 losses and 9 draws, 5 draws from the last 6 games.
The draw here is priced at 3.80. But let’s be honest, there won’t be a better time to prevail over Chelsea than now. Clearly the team isn’t in their best shape at the moment, has an upcoming game in a major European Tournament, and has a Premier League places to think as well since the Blues are 5th. Playing in 3 places might be too hard, so dropping out of this Cup might now be the worst thing.
To be honest I’d back the draw or away victory in this game as well for several reasons. First I honestly do not believe Chelsea deserves such low odds for a home win, especially after their recent results, odds at 1.57 and second with the upcoming CL game the will most likely start with a very odd team.
