Morgan Schneiderlin says Everton will make life difficult for Premier League leaders Chelsea this weekend.
The Toffees host the Blues at Goodison Park on Sunday in a match that could go a long way to deciding who wins the title this season.
Chelsea restored their seven-point lead over second-placed Tottenham Hotspur by beating Southampton 4-2 on Tuesday night but Schneiderlin suggests Everton are planning to be a bump in the road of the West Londoners.
"Chelsea are a difficult team to beat but we are a match to anyone at home," he told Sky Sports News HQ.
"When we play at our top at Goodison, no one can beat us. It will be hard for them on Sunday and we won't let them breathe, or have any space on the pitch.
"The teams trying to catch them are very impressive. Tottenham, for me, are a very strong team and, if Chelsea slip, they will be there. Chelsea can't afford to lose and let points slip because there's a lion chasing them.
"We have to play for something; for the fans, for the badge and to have good momentum next season. We feel confident at home and we have the support of the fans and they are very loud. They are behind us."
