History of the Chelsea v Everton fixture

Chelsea prepare to entertain Everton at Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Blues are clearly on top, having won 42 and lost only 14 of the 80 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Stamford Bridge was less than a year ago, in April 2009, when they played out a goalless draw in a Premier League match.
