Everton without Kenny & Zouma for Chelsea clash, Baines returns, late test for McCarthy & Richarlison

Everton will be without two players for Sunday’s Premier League meeting with Chelsea – Jonjoe Kenny (knock) and Kurt Zouma (ineligible to face parent club). The Toffees will also give late fitness tests to James McCarthy and Richarlison ahead of their trip to Stamford Bridge. Leighton Baines has recently returned, however, and will be available for selection.

Kenny has made six appearances in all competitions for Everton this season, last featuring against Leicester City on October 6. He’s since missed three of the Blues’ meetings against Crystal Palace, Manchester United and Brighton & Hove Albion and isn’t likely to return until after the international break.
