Though with Forest and Man City in FA Cup semi-final action against each other on Sunday, it’s a chance for Enzo Maresca’s side to take advantage as victory will see them end the weekend in the top four.
Everton, meanwhile, do not have much to play for. Premier League status has been guaranteed for another season, and with a top half finish unlikely, their only real incentive is to finish above Manchester United and Tottenham.
Date, kick-off time and venue
Chelsea vs Everton is scheduled for a 12.30pm BST kick-off on Saturday, April 26, 2025.

Chelsea vs Everton prediction
Chelsea’s win over Fulham was a big result and it’s important they follow that up by beating Everton. It’s the early kick-off so there will be pressure on Maresca’s side and facing a team that will look to soak up pressure could be a problem.
That said, the Blues have enough quality to get the job done. The performance won’t be pretty, but with Champions League qualification at stake, results are all that matters at this stage of the season.
