Gibson and Alcaraz are still out, and James McCarthy and Coleman face fitness tests as they have come back from international duty with knocks. Coleman would be a big miss as he has arguably been their best player so far rampaging up the right wing from right back. Everton haven't scored in last two matches, both against average defenses in WBA and Cardiff so it's hard to imagine them scoring too many against a Chelsea now that they dont have Fellaini and the fact that Chelsea probably have the best defensive options in the league with Cech, Ivanovic, Cole, Terry, Cahill, and David Luiz. I'd be all over Chelsea DNB if not for the international break. Obviously Chelsea had a lot more players than Everton playing around the world over past week and they may come back fatigued and put in a flat performance, especially at a place which is always difficult to go to in Goodison Park. Hazard and Oscar got injured playing for their country as well and not sure if they will be fit enough to start. Might still play Chelsea PK small, or play them live if they are not looking sluggish
