Everton welcome a wounded Chelsea side to the Hill Dickinson Stadium for the Saturday teatime kick-off in the Premier League. The Londoners were dumped out of Europe in midweek, and have work to do if they’re to finish in the top four in the league. It’s been a difficult month for Liam Rosenior, who started his tenure in West London well, but has now overseen just one Premier League win in five games, and a humiliating 8-2 aggregate defeat to PSG in the Champions League. The Toffees will hope to put their sticky home form behind them. While they did beat Burnley 2-0 in their last outing in their new home at Bramley-Moore Dock, they hadn’t won any of their previous seven there – a run which included an FA Cup defeat on penalties to Sunderland.Ahead of a big game for both sides, Ladbrokes are offering anyone who hasn’t yet signed up to them the chance to grab £40 in free bets.Net even more value with LadbrokesThe offer is available to anyone creating a brand new Ladbrokes account ahead of the weekend’s fixtures.
