Premier League
1.30pm Sunday

Burnley stunned champions Chelsea 3-2 at Stamford Bridge on the first Saturday of the new Premier League campaign and it is worth having a bet on another eventful west London encounter.

The Blues bounced back with a Wembley win over Spurs and will have fond memories of beating Everton 3-0 and 5-0 last season, while the Toffees may be tired after their Thursday trip to Split.

Everton defended well in a 1-1 draw at Manchester City last Monday and the teams’ Bridge battle two seasons ago was a 3-3 draw.

Recommendation
Over 2.5 goals
