Everton 0-0 Chelsea: Enzo Maresca's side prevented from going top of Premier League in battling draw Chelsea missed out on the chance to go top of the Premier League as they were held to a 0-0 draw by Everton at Goodison Park.
Victory for the Blues, coupled with Liverpool failing to do likewise against Tottenham later in the day, would have left Chelsea at the summit on Christmas Day, despite Enzo Maresca’s insistence that his side are not in a title race.
Nicolas Jackson had two big chances in the first-half, the first bringing a sharp save from Jordan Pickford and the second a header sent against the post from a couple of yards out, but that was as good as it got for the Blues.
On a cold, windy afternoon this was perhaps proof that he was right, as Chelsea largely struggled in an uneventful clash.
