Preview: Everton vs. Chelsea

Sports Mole previews Everton's match against Chelsea on Saturday afternoon.

Everton will be seeking to record their first league win of the season when they host Chelsea on Saturday.

Roberto Martinez's side have drawn all three of their Premier League matches so far, including their stalemate at Cardiff City last time out.

Jose Mourinho's Chelsea have enjoyed an unbeaten start to the league season, drawing two and winning one of their three games to occupy second place in the table.

Everton completed the signings of James McCarthy and Gareth Barry on transfer deadline day and both could make their debuts against Chelsea.

Romelu Lukaku, who also joined the Toffees on deadline day, is ineligible to face his parent club due to the conditions of his season-long loan switch.

The visitors, who lost the Super Cup final on penalties to Bayern Munich a fortnight ago, have no new injury concerns ahead of the match at Goodison Park.

New signings Samuel Eto'o and Christian Atsu could make their Chelsea debuts.
