Chelsea Team News<\/h3>\n

Rober Sanchez starts in goal with a back line of Reece James, Tosin Adarabioyo, Levi Colwill, and Marc Cucurella. Moises Caciedo partners Enzo Fernandez in the middle of the park while the front four is made up of Noni Madueke, Cole Palmer, Jadon Sancho, and Pedro Neto<\/p>\n

Notable Changes<\/h3>\n

There’s some big decisions made by the coach including the move to stick with James and Caicedo on the field instead of Romeo Lavia with an inverting Caicedo. Tyrique George is dropped for a game that will be far too physical for him to start as the striker so Neto will likely play as the striker here with Sancho and Madueke on the wings.<\/p>\n
