TEAM NEWS
Darron Gibson is available for selection for Everton having had the red card he received against West Ham rescinded but Marouane Fellaini remains suspended.
Johnny Heitinga came off the bench in the Boxing Day clash with Wigan but may not return to the starting line-up, while Seamus Coleman is battling to be fit with a hamstring problem and Tony Hibbert (calf) and Kevin Mirallas (hamstring) are still out.
Chelsea, meanwhile, could make a couple of changes from the team which started the 1-0 win over Norwich.
Eden Hazard dropped to the bench for the game but should start against the Toffees, with Oscar most likely to miss out as a result.
Ramires may come in for John Obi Mikel, with Frank Lampard another option, but Rafa Benitez will probably leave the back five unchanged, meaning David Luiz should continue in a holding midfield role.
Ryan Bertrand (groin), John Terry and Oriol Romeu (both knee) are all out.
