How Chelsea Women Have Lined Up Recently
Ann-Katrin Berger has taken over goalkeeping duties from Zecira Musovic for the past few games. In defence, Millie Bright and Jess Carter have been undroppable while the other defenders have been left up in the air. With both a three at the back and a standard back four used we’ve seen Kadeisha Buchanan, Ève Périsset, Ashley Lawrence, and Niamh Charles start in the back line or as wing backs.

We have yet to see a consistent midfield pairing in the centre with Sjoeke Nüken, Erin Cuthbert, Melanie Leupolz, and Sophie Ingle all getting some starts together. The attacking lineup has been chopped and changed with Jessie Fleming, Sam Kerr, Mia Fishel, Guro Reiten, Fran Kirby, and Lauren James battling it out for those spots with injuries playing their part.
Chelsea Recent Form and Tactics
After starting the season in a 4-2-3-1 setup, Emma Hayes has seemingly switched it up to a 3-4-3 of sorts in the past two games. The initial formation got results, although the performances were shakey.

Since moving to a three at the back we have seen the full power of this Chelsea Women team on display with a 6-0 thrashing of Aston Villa following up a 4-2 win over Brighton & Hove Albion.
Chelsea Women Injuries to Consider
In her pre-match conference, Hayes has confirmed some absences. The manager has stated that Reiten and Leupolz are unavailable for this clash with Everton. They join long-term absentees Cat Macario and Katerina Svitkova on the sidelines.
Chelsea Women Predicted Lineup
As longtime fans may know guessing a Hayes lineup is like trying to crack a code, especially as they have a midweek clash with Real Madrid in the coming days. We could see some rotation with a first start for Aggie Beever-Jones after her goal last weekend.
