Sutton acknowledged Everton’s recent struggles, noting that they only secured their first league win of 2024 last week against Burnley. However, he believes that their victory was a significant boost and that they will be motivated to follow it up with a positive result at Stamford Bridge.
Describing Chelsea as a “developing team,” Sutton ultimately sided with Everton to secure a point in this match. He emphasized the importance of Everton capitalizing on their recent win and putting in a strong performance against Chelsea.
With Sutton’s prediction setting the stage for an intriguing matchup, football fans around the world will be eagerly anticipating the outcome of this Premier League clash. Stay tuned for what promises to be an exciting and unpredictable game between Chelsea and Everton.
