The head coach switched up the lineup for our Carabao Cup match against the same team on Wednesday, making 11 alterations. Adopting a similar approach today brings Robert Sanchez back to the goalkeeper position. He will be supported by a defensive line featuring captain Reece James, Wesley Fofana, Levi Colwill, and Malo Gusto.

Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia are once again the top choice for midfield in the Premier League. Cole Palmer is set to feature in his 50th match for Chelsea, with Noni Madueke and Pedro Neto flanking him on the wings. Nicolas Jackson is positioned at the forefront of the attack.

Andre Onana, Noussair Mazraoui, and Rasmus Hojlund have been brought in, while Altay Bayindir, Victor Lindelof, and Joshua Zirkzee will start the match on the bench.

Chelsea's lineup features: Sanchez in goal, Gusto and Fofana in defense, Colwill and James, who is the captain, in key defensive roles. In midfield, Lavia and Caicedo are vital players, while Madueke, Palmer, and Neto provide support in attack, with Jackson leading the front line.
