Chelsea missed the opportunity to temporarily overtake Liverpool at the Premier League summit after a 0-0 draw against Everton.

Enzo Maresca’s team, chasing a sixth consecutive league win, failed to break through Everton’s defense despite dominating possession.

The result extended Chelsea’s unbeaten run but marked their first scoreless outing since the season’s opening weekend.

The match began with Chelsea on the front foot, as Cole Palmer fired an early shot wide and Nicolas Jackson came close to rounding Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.

However, Everton’s defense held firm, with center-back Tosin Adarabioyo making a crucial late clearance to secure a point for the hosts.

Everton, playing their first match under new owners, the Friedkin Group, showed determination despite the tough weather conditions.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s header on target was their best chance in a game where clear opportunities were limited.

The draw leaves Chelsea one point behind Liverpool, while Everton continue their bid to climb out of the bottom half of the table.
