Chelsea suffer double setback ahead of Everton clash

Chelsea have suffered a double setback ahead of the Premier League clash against Everton at Stamford Bridge.

The Blues have been hugely inconsistent in the top-flight this term, but they are still in contention for European football.

They are currently only five points behind sixth-placed Manchester United and also have a game in hand against Arsenal.

The London giants are scheduled to host the Toffees on Monday and ahead of the game, there is some concerning injury news.

Axel Disasi and Enzo Fernandes are struggling with niggles and they are uncertain to face the Toffees at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea have been scoring plenty of goals this term, but the club have also been vulnerable at the back in every encounter.

Hence, they are far from guaranteed a win on Monday. The Toffees will fancy their chances of picking up a surprise victory.

Despite an eight-point deduction for breaching PSR rules, Sean Dyche's side are still two points ahead of the relegation spots.
