Can Everton's home record save them? Seven of the eight games they've won have been at home, but they're up against Chelsea, who have the BEST away form in PL - and the number crunchers predict they're doomed

With the worst away form in the Premier League, Everton must pick up points from their three remaining home games of the season if they are to avoid relegation, beginning today when Chelsea visit Goodison Park.

With Everton now in the bottom three - five points behind a resurgent Burnley, who are on a bounce under caretaker boss, Mike Jackson, and a battling Leeds United, albeit with two games in hand - the need is urgent.

But Everton have at least some cause for optimism as they line up against the current European champions.
