In this weekend's Premier League highlight match, Chelsea will visit Hill Dickinson Stadium to face Everton away from home.
Before the match, Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior made it clear that the team was prepared for a tough battle.
Currently, Everton sits in 8th place in the Premier League standings, just two places and five points behind Chelsea. Under David Moyes' guidance, Everton has demonstrated remarkable resilience and defensive solidity, and they are making a strong push for their first European qualification spot since the 2017-18 season.
Rossinier remains highly vigilant, pointing out that even Arsenal, the current league leaders, struggled to secure three points against Everton last week, only managing to do so late in the game.
On a tactical level, Rossinier particularly emphasized Everton's significant threat from set pieces. Like many strong teams this season, Everton excels at creating chaos in front of the opponent's goal from corner kicks and applying high pressure on the goalkeeper. Chelsea's coaching staff has conducted in-depth analysis and targeted preparations to counter this lethal tactic.
“Moyes is an extremely experienced top manager, and Everton performed flawlessly in many aspects of the game,” Rossinier said at the press conference. “We not only prepared for their set pieces, but also had contingency plans for every moment of the game. We must show fighting spirit on the pitch and ensure we get the result we want.”
