Methodology

Match analysis

Superior backs Over 1.5 goals at Everton because Chelsea's games keep opening up: they conceded in each of their last five, from the 3-0 defeat at Brentford to the 6-3 win over Leeds, and scored in four of them. Everton's own tight results are the obstacle.

Everton's 1-0s and a goalless trip to Tottenham

Three of Everton's last five stayed under two goals: 1-0 home wins over Wolves and Ipswich and a 0-0 at Tottenham. They also won 1-0 at Chelsea in April 2025, the first of three straight wins over them. Everton average 1.2 goals a game, and their goals have come one at a time lately.

Everton's 2-2s with Manchester United and Hull City

The two meetings since then went 2-0 at Chelsea and 3-0 at Everton, both clearing the line, and Everton's two draws this autumn were 2-2s, at home to Manchester United and at Hull City on 11 October. Chelsea beat Bournemouth 5-1 last time out and lost 2-1 at Arsenal before that, and Superior's most likely score is 1-1, with a 2-1 Chelsea win next.
