Also, the occasion might get to them. Last NL derby at the existing Lane, chance to finish above us for the first time in two decades, title hopes in the balance. They have shown no sign of bottling it yet, but this is another big test in that regard for a team of players who have won f*ck all in their careers so far.

If Chelsea can just sneak a win at Goodison it will relax by sphincter no end.
