Chelsea and Everton announce their starting lineups for Saturday's Premier League fixture at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea and Everton have announced their starting lineups for Saturday's Premier League fixture at Stamford Bridge.

Last weekend, Tyrique George came off the substitutes' bench to help the Blues earn a 2-1 victory at Fulham, Pedro Neto netting the winner at Craven Cottage.

However, George is left on the substitute' bench for the meeting with the Toffees, Neto retaining his place as expected and Nicolas Jackson leading the line.

Enzo Maresca has opted to make just the one alteration to his first XI, Romeo Lavia returning for his first Premier League start since December.

Reece James has dropped out of the team with Moises Caicedo switching to right-back for this encounter. With Lavia unlikely to play 90 minutes, the Ecuador international could revert back to the engine room in the second half.

Everton make two changes

Meanwhile, David Moyes has opted to make two alterations to the Everton side that started last weekend's fixture at home to Manchester City.

Both of those changes are enforced, James Tarkowski suffering a hamstring injury and subsequently needing to undergo surgery, while Armando Broja is unable to face his parent club.

Nathan Patterson has been recalled at right-back, allowing Jake O'Brien to move into the centre, while Beto comes back into the attack.

Chelsea XI: Sanchez; Caicedo, Chalobah, Colwill, Cucurella; Fernandez, Lavia; Madueke, Palmer, Neto; Jackson

Subs: Jorgensen, Acheampong, Badiashile, Tosin, James, Dewsbury-Hall, George, Sancho, Nkunku

Everton XI: Pickford; Patterson, O'Brien, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Gueye, Garner, Doucoure; Harrison, Ndiaye; Beto

Subs: Virginia, Begovic, Keane, McNeil, Chermiti, Young, Coleman, Alcaraz, Iroegbunam
