A Chelsea spokesman said: "There won’t be a parade unfortunately. There was going to be one if we had won the Champions League but it is the same as it was in 2007 – the police costs to prepare it and then not have it are just too much and really do rule it out. So as a result, unfortunately, there will not be one."

Hiddink has also revealed his bizarre pre-match ritual, even though he maintains he is not superstitious.

"I am not superstitious," he added. "There are many players who have superstitious behaviour. One player does not want to touch the line when he goes out onto the pitch.

"I don’t have that behaviour but just before we go onto the pitch, I always go to the loo for half a minute, even if there is no need to go."

Chelsea have failed to beat Everton in the league this season and Hiddink is full of admiration for boss David Moyes.

Moyes guided Everton to fifth place in the Barclays Premier League with a 2-0 win at Fulham on Saturday and Hiddink knows they will be just as hard to break down when they return to the capital in four days’ time.

"I respect very much how David Moyes has made his team, not having the highest budget, and managing a team like that shows he is a very good professional," said Hiddink.

"It is a tough team. They have shown it twice against Chelsea with two draws. They have very good tactical discipline and on top of that they have quality players who can make a difference.

"They have very skilful and smart players and are a difficult team to play against."
