Preview: Everton Vs Chelsea
Matchday 17 of the Premier League is set to be underway very soon
Everton will welcome Chelsea to Merseyside in their 17th Premier League fixture with the hope to get things back on track. The Toffees have had a tough season so far and are seeking a resurgence. With just 15 points in as many games, Everton are nearing the relegation zone and it is a point of huge concern. It’s been a season with a run of mixed performances for them. While they have struggled to get points against the team placed in the bottom half, they have shown resilience against the top teams, including a goalless draw to Arsenal.
Chelsea on the other hand are flying high on confidence and are enjoying their best run of form in recent times. The Blues have won eight games on the trot coming into this fixture and are undefeated in their last eleven games. Chelsea are just two points behind league leaders Liverpool and will hope to put a strong foot forward to strengthen their title charge. Additionally, they have scored 37 goals, the highest in the Premier League this season.

About Premier League:
History
The Premier League is a private company wholly owned by its 20 Member Clubs who make up the League at any one time.
Each individual club is independent, working within the rules of football, as defined by the Premier League, The FA, UEFA and FIFA, as well as being subject to English and European law.
Each of the 20 clubs are a Shareholder in the Premier League. Consultation is at the heart of the Premier League and Shareholder meetings are the ultimate decision-making forum for Premier League policy and are held at regular intervals during the course of the season.
The Premier League AGM takes place at the close of each season, at which time the relegated clubs transfer their shares to the clubs promoted into the Premier League from the Football League Championship.
Clubs have the opportunity to propose new rules or amendments at the Shareholder meeting. Each Member Club is entitled to one vote and all rule changes and major commercial contracts require the support of at least a two-thirds vote, or 14 clubs, to be agreed.
The Premier League Rule Book, contained within the Handbook (Download: Premier League Handbook; PDF 18.2MB), serves as a contract between the League, the Member Clubs and one another, defining the structure and running of the competition.
Any serious breach of the Rule Book results in an independent three-person tribunal sitting to hear the case, ascertain guilt and set the punishment, which can range from fines to points deductions and, in extreme cases, expulsion from the competition (this has never happened in the history of the Premier League).
At the Premier League's AGM in June 2022, an Owners' Charter was agreed by Clubs. The Owners and Directors of the Member Clubs are custodians of those organizations and will uphold the spirit of the Charter's commitments.
