Everton's main aim is to try and slow the pace of the game down whenever they win possession, and they're happy to keep it between their defenders. Chelsea are still pressing high though, not willing to sit back despite their big lead.

McNeil puts a better delivery into the box from a corner this time, and Beto goes for the spectacular with an overhead kick. Chalobah is tight to his back though, and the forward can't make contact.

SAVE! Jackson does brilliantly to skip away from three Everton challenges before unselfishly poking it out to Mudryk on the left. He can't get hold of the shot though, tamely hitting it straight at Pickford.
