"If I were him": Paul Merson states his prediction for Chelsea vs Everton

Paul Merson has given his prediction for the upcoming clash between Chelsea and Everton. 

The Blues are sitting in 10th place in the Premier League table with 37 points. The Toffees, meanwhile, are in 15th place near the relegation zone with 25 points. 

The two sides are set to face each other in the domestic top tier on Saturday, March 18, 2023. Ahead of the meeting, Mer5son has shared his thoughts, backing Graham Potter's side to beat the opponents. 

"Everton got a fantastic win against Brentford but they have a bunch of hard games coming up, so they really needed to get three points against the Bees. Chelsea, on the other hand, are finally showing signs of clicking under Graham Potter after the Englishman decided to revert to a three-at-the-back formation," the pundit wrote on Sportskeeda.

"Raheem Sterling no longer makes Chelsea's best team anymore, as Mykhailo Mudryk, Joao Felix and Kai Havertz led the line to devastating effect against Leicester. Sterling did get the winner against Borussia Dortmund, but Potter is finally showing signs of finding his best XI and if Chelsea continue to win games, will he change his team? For now, if I were him, I wouldn't change anything."

Paul Merson's prediction: Chelsea 3 - 0 Everton
