Chelsea and Everton’s turbulent seasons on and off the field collide at Stamford Bridge on Monday.
Everton won their first Premier League game since December when they beat Burnley last time out and will be keen to put some daylight between themselves and the relegation zone.
Chelsea drawing with bottom two clubs Burnley and Sheffield United either side of beating Manchester United in dramatic circumstances does plenty to sum up their season, but the less eye-catching inconsistency of some of the teams above them means Mauricio Pochettino’s team remain in the hunt for European qualification.
Elsewhere, Atalanta have a Serie A runout just three days before their UEFA Europa League quarterfinal second leg against Liverpool and Galatasaray are looking to hit the front again in a thrilling battle for the Turkish Super Lig title.
