From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Chelsea welcome Everton to Stamford Bridge on Sunday as they bid to build upon last weekend’s victory over Tottenham.

The Blues will be without the suspended Gary Cahill, who sits out the second match of his three-game ban, while Eden Hazard remains unavailable due to injury.

Everton travel to the Bridge on the back of a 1-1 draw with Manchester City. Idrissa Gueye and Sandro Ramirez could both feature after returning from injury.

Here’s everything you need to know:

What time does it start?

Chelsea vs Everton kicks off at 1.30pm on Sunday 27 August.

Where can I watch it?

Player to watch?

Wayne Rooney. The forward has made a flying start to life at Everton, scoring two from two, as he continues to prove his critics wrong. An experienced and hardened head, Rooney should be in his element today against the Blues’ physical backline. With his confidence on the up, expect another strong outing from the Englishman.
