Chelsea\u2019s Joao Pedro is the most in-form forward in the Premier League right now.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He scored two goals against Bournemouth at the weekend to take his tally to five this season. Only Manchester City\u2019s Erling Haaland has scored more times than the Brazilian.<\/p>\n

\n

While Haaland may be the Premier League\u2019s top scorer, Pedro is statistically the highest-rated player<\/a> in the division. He has three more assists than Haaland, who is yet to set up a teammate.<\/p>\n

Everton will undoubtedly have to be wary of Pedro\u2019s<\/a> threat when Chelsea<\/a> make the trip to the Hill Dickinson Stadium this Saturday. However, the Toffees are one of few teams who actually know how to stop Pedro.<\/p>\n

Joao Pedro has never scored against Everton<\/h2>\n

Surprisingly, Pedro has faced Everton seven times in his career but has never scored against them! He has at least been on the winning side on a few occasions.<\/p>\n

Pedro has beaten Everton three times, including last season when Chelsea defeated the Merseyside club 2-0 at Stamford Bridge. However, the 24-year-old and his teammates lost the reverse fixture 3-0.<\/p>\n

This time around, Chelsea should definitely have enough firepower to score at the Hill Dickinson. Even if Pedro cannot find the back of the net, Xabi Alonso<\/a> will still have Cole Palmer and Morgan Rogers.<\/p>\n

Rogers is also one of the most in-form attackers in the Premier League at the moment. Like Pedro, Rogers is scoring goals but also evading tackles<\/a> consistently.<\/p>\n

The England international is not an easy opponent. He can drive with the ball, protect it and test goalkeepers from inside and outside the box.<\/p>\n

Usually, Chelsea fans would not be feeling optimistic about travelling to Everton. But an attack of Pedro, Rogers and Palmer can instil confidence.<\/p>\n

Defence is another matter, although Chelsea did show a lot of improvement in that department against Bournemouth. Following Moises Caicedo\u2019s return to the starting XI, they looked much more solid.<\/p>\n
