Chelsea are hoping to end a run of four matches without a win in all competitions when the Blues host Everton on Saturday.
Enzo Maresca’s side drew at home to Arsenal and at Bournemouth either side of a 3-1 defeat at Leeds United in the Premier League, then lost 2-1 at Atalanta in the Champions League on Tuesday.
Everton are on a different trajectory. A win at Stamford Bridge would move the Toffees into fourth place, while Chelsea would start the match fifth.
The Toffees have won and kept clean sheets in four of their last five matches, beating Fulham and Nottingham Forest at home and Manchester United and Bournemouth away.
