    • 42' Alex hamemers it into the wall but the rebound falls to BRIDGE but his drive flashes high and wide.
    • 41' Another free-kick to Chelsea about 25 yards out on the right... Alex to take...
    • 37' Justice as Drogba blasts the free-kick well over.
    • 36' Neville with a very very light touch on Drogba, who goes down far too easily but the ref buys it and Chelsea have a free-kick just on the right-hand side of the D...
    • 33' Corner Chelsea on the right... Lampard sends it into the six yard box and DROGBA but off the shoulder of the defender and into Howard's arms.

    • 29' CHELSEA SUB: Carvalho cannot continue and is replaced by Ben Haim.

    • 20' Cahill is played through on the right by Yakubu but he's been pulled up for handball... Carvalho's in a heap on the ground after that clash with the Yak.
    • 17' Chelsea come again through Essien but Neville is well-placed to hoof it clear.
    • 16' Lampard sends it to DROGBA ON THE EDGE OF THE BOX but his spinning volley is blocked for another corner!! This next one is poor though, deflected up in the air and drops to the Drog again but he is at a very acute angle and drills it into the side-netting.
    • 15' Chelsea break and Drogba wins a corner on the right... Lampard to take...

    • 4' The sides have both lined up with 4-5-1 formations and they're struggling to find any space in midfield in these opening exchanges...
    • 1' Match underway at the Bridge!
    • - Everton have shuffled things around a bit since the 2-0 UEFA Cup win at Nuremberg but goal-hero Victor Anichebe remains on the bench. Mikel Arteta fails to make the squad and with Andy Johnson still injured, Yakubu leads the line on his own. Nuno Valente continues at left back.
    • - Chelsea keeper Petr Cech is injured so Carlo Cudicini plays, Shaun Wright-Phillips and Joe Cole handed starts on the wings and John Obi Mikel alongside Michael Essien in the centre of the park. Didier Drogba starts alone up front with Andriy Shevchenko on the bench.
    • - Chelsea host Everton in the second Premier League kick-off on Sunday, LIVE on eurosport.yahoo.com from 14:00 GMT!
