Everton v Chelsea live: score, updates and line-ups

Full time at Hill Dickinson Stadium: Everton 0-2 Chelsea. Pedro Neto's double either side of a dogged first-half stalemate did the damage, with the visitors dominant throughout the second period and finishing well on top - 18 shots to Everton's six tells its own story. A toothless attacking display from the Blues, who rarely troubled Martínez, means a frustrating home defeat to end the day on.

Pedro Neto completes his brace from a set piece, slotting home to the bottom left corner and putting the result beyond doubt. It caps a dominant second-half showing from Chelsea, who have thoroughly outplayed an Everton side left to rue a flat attacking display at Hill Dickinson Stadium.

Chelsea continue to dictate proceedings as the clock ticks down, piling on the pressure with João Pedro's header blocked and Palmer firing wide from outside the box. Everton have had little joy in attack, with their only route into the final third coming from set pieces, and Tarkowski was forced into conceding a corner under pressure. Shots now read 13-4 in Chelsea's favour, and Everton need something special to rescue a point at Hill Dickinson Stadium.

Chelsea have kept their foot down since the goal, dominating the ball and piling on the pressure through Rogers and Palmer, both off target, while João Pedro also dragged a shot wide. Everton have offered little going forward in this spell, with Grealish flagged offside their only notable moment, and the away side now lead 11-4 on shots as Everton look for a response.

Straight after the restart Chelsea get the goal their second-half pressure threatened - Pedro Neto curling home from the centre of the box to make it 0-1. Everton were level on shots on target before that and have barely had the ball since, with Chelsea now controlling almost two-thirds of possession.

Everton have continued to look the brighter side despite Chelsea's grip on possession. Grealish and Barry both forced smart saves from Martínez, while Tarkowski picked up a booking amid a cluster of cards for both sides. Chelsea's best moment came right at the end of the spell as Caicedo crashed a shot against the bar from a corner, but it's Everton who lead 4-1 on shots on target heading towards half-time at 0-0.

Despite still seeing far less of the ball, Everton have been the sharper side in front of goal over the last ten minutes. Röhl forced a good save from Martínez and Barry's header was also kept out, while Harrison Armstrong's reckless challenge earned him a booking and Pedro Neto has since joined him in the book for Chelsea. It's still goalless, but the hosts now lead 2-1 on shots on target and have won both corners of the match so far.

Chelsea have had the better of the early possession, dominating the ball at 73% to Everton's 27%, but neither side has truly threatened with a shot yet. It's been a scrappy, foul-strewn start - Caicedo has given away a couple of free kicks - and Grealish was flagged offside as Everton tried to break forward. Goalless and cagey after a quarter of an hour at Hill Dickinson Stadium.
