While Liverpool can respond later in the day and still boast a game in hand over The Blues, three points at Everton would be enough to send Enzo Maresca’s side top of the pile.
Still, The Blues do have a rather dreadful record at Goodison Park over the years and will need to improve on that ahead of their final visit to Everton’s famous old ground.
Fans in the UK, however, will not be able to watch what happens on Merseyside later today.
Why isn’t Everton vs Chelsea on TV in UK today?
