Chelsea centre-back Thiago Silva is nearing a return after missing the last seven games because of a thigh problem, and will be assessed.
The Blues will continue to monitor striker Tammy Abraham, who has been nursing a minor injury and was not involved against Liverpool on Thursday.
Everton midfielder James Rodriguez is doubtful because of a calf problem.
Tom Davies and Seamus Coleman will also need to be assessed, while Yerry Mina and Fabian Delph remain sidelined.
LAWRO'S PREDICTION
Chelsea still haven't conceded a home goal in four games under Thomas Tuchel and Everton are better on the road than they are at Goodison Park - the Toffees haven't lost an away game since 1 November and 29 of their 46 points have come on the road.
