Everton are really playing with fire right now. They are placed 18th in a table of 20, and now it is realistic that they can be relegated to the Championship.
They have six fixtures remaining and they need to come up with a surplus of three points in order to avoid getting the boot. However, they are going through a struggling stretch of results, and to cause them even more worries they have some really hard fixtures remaining.
This weekend they are at home and they are supposed to take on the current European champions, the Blues.
Chelsea are placed third in the table at the moment, and as of now they are determined to secure this third position mathematically. Also they need to reduce the gap between the top two teams as much as they can, to protect their ego.
Comparatively they have been in far better form than the Toffees and they have scored in plenty in the past few months. And particularly on the road, they have been on a superb scoring stretch.
The latest encounter had finished in a 1-1 draw.
The Blues had won two of the past four meetings.
At this venue the latest clash had ended in a 1-0 win for the hosts.
It’s been five years since the visitors have recorded a win at this ground.

他们还有六场比赛，他们需要拿出三分的剩余来避免被淘汰。然而，他们正在经历一段艰难的结果，让他们更担心的是，他们还有一些真正困难的比赛。
本周末他们将在主场迎战目前的欧洲冠军蓝军。
切尔西目前在积分榜上排名第三，现在他们已经下定决心在数学上确保第三的位置。此外，他们还需要尽可能地缩小前两支球队之间的差距，以保护他们的自尊。
相比之下，他们的状态要比太妃糖好得多，在过去的几个月里他们取得了很多进球。特别是在客场，他们已经进入了一个极好的得分阶段。
最近的一次交锋以1比1战平。
在过去的四场比赛中，蓝军赢了两场。
在这里，最近的一次交锋以东道主1-0获胜告终。
