Everton F.C. is getting ready to host Chelsea at their home stadium of Goodison Park on Sunday, 22 December. This game will be a part of match day 17 of the Premier League 2024-25 season and will mark the first time the two teams meet in the current season of the League. So far, Everton has played 15 and Chelsea has played 16 games. Yet, they enter the game with considerably different positions on the league table.
On 3 June 2024 Chelsea parted ways with their previous head coach Mauricio Pochettino. Italian Enzo Maresca, who previously coached Leicester City, joined the team as the new head coach for the next five years.
Everton started the season with their existing coach Sean Dyche who was appointed to this position on 30 January 2023. Previously, Dyche fulfilled the same role in Burnley F.C.
Currently, the Premier League 2024-25 season table looks the following:
| Position | Team | Played | Wins | Draws | Losses | Points | Qualification |
| 1 | Liverpool | 15 | 11 | 3 | 1 | 36 | Qualification for the Champions League league phase |

Everton vs Chelsea: Current Progress at Premier League 2024-25
Everton will be playing the upcoming game on their turf, with Chelsea being the visiting team. Since the beginning of the season Everton has played 15 games as their match with Liverpool scheduled for 7 December was postponed due to adverse weather. A reschedule is planned, though the exact date is still to be determined. So far Everton has played 7 home and 8 away games. Chelsea has completed 16 games (8 home and 8 away).
Even though the first game of the season ended in a loss for the Blues, they didn’t let this result throw them off their path. Up until now they have been confidently climbing up the League table and are now considered among the top contenders for the title. They also qualify for the Champions League league phase.
Everton was less lucky this season. Currently, the team is in the 16th position on the League table. While they won’t face relegation to the EFL Championship, they are definitely not among the favourites for the season’s trophy.
