The pressure is on for Everton as they head to Chelsea for a difficult game.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin has been on a hot streak lately, scoring in his last two games for Everton. It's a small glimmer of hope for the team, who have been struggling to find the back of the net all season. The blue half of Merseyside has been through a nightmare of a Premier League season, but they are confident that they will come out okay in the end.

Despite their struggles, Everton is likely to survive the relegation battle. However, their upcoming match against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge may not go in their favor. The team has had a tough season, with the deduction of eight points due to a previous incident. This has only added to the pressure on manager Sean Dyche and his players, who have been forced to adopt a "siege mentality" to get through the tough times.

While the points deduction may have affected their position in the table, it doesn't tell the whole story. Everton has only managed to secure one league win since December, which is a more accurate reflection of their performance. If we add the deducted points back to their tally, they would be in 14th place, with only a couple of draws needed to secure safety. However, this is hardly a season to remember and the team finds themselves among the lower-ranked clubs in terms of relevance and European ambitions.

Their next match against Chelsea will be a tough one, as the London club has also had an inconsistent season. However, they have managed to pull off some impressive wins despite their struggles. This is something that Everton has struggled to do, as they have only scored more than one goal in a match once in their last 15 games. Chelsea, on the other hand, has scored at least two goals in each of their last six matches.

It's not all bad news for Everton though, as they have managed to keep their defense tight in recent games. Only Manchester City, Wolves, and West Ham have managed to score more than two goals against them in their last 15 matches. However, this may not be enough to secure a win against a strong Chelsea side. Bookmakers are favoring a 2-1 home win for Chelsea, with odds of 15/2 at William Hill and 8/11 at Betway.

One player to watch out for in this match is Cole Palmer, who has been in top form for Chelsea. He has scored three of his seven goals in his last five appearances from the penalty spot and is a strong candidate to score at any time. However, in terms of opening the scoring, Nicolas Jackson may have the edge, with odds of 11/2 at Sky Bet.

In other news, the tennis world is abuzz with speculation about the future of Rafael Nadal. The legendary player has been struggling with injuries and has not played a competitive match since the beginning of the year. He is set to face 21-year-old Flavio Cobolli in his first match back on clay in Barcelona. Nadal's serve has reportedly been causing him trouble, which may give Cobolli an advantage. Bookmakers have odds of 13/5 for Cobolli to win at William Hill.

Meanwhile, racing fans are already looking ahead to the upcoming Flat season. Oisin Murphy is a top choice to finish the year as the champion jockey, with odds of 7/2 at William Hill. For the leading apprentice, Tommie Jakes is favored at 5/2 by Sky Bet. It's sure to be an exciting season for racing enthusiasts.
