The Blues registered a convincing 6-2 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers in their last league outing. Maresca has made one change from that game with Pedro Neto coming in for Mykhailo Mudryk on the left wing.

Robert Sanchez starts in goal for the third league game running with Malo Gusto and Marc Cucurella occupying the full-back positions.

Wesley Fofana and Levi Colwill continue as the central defensive duo. The pair have formed a good understanding over recent weeks.

In midfield, it will be Moises Caicedo partnering Enzo Fernandez with Romeo Lavia ruled out due to a minor hamstring issue.

Further forward, Cole Palmer starts from the number 10 role. He bagged a hat-trick of assists during the 6-2 mauling of Wolves.

Noni Madueke, who scored a fine hat-trick in the same game, will start on the right wing with Pedro Neto on the opposite flank.

Nicolas Jackson will lead the attack for the west London giants. He remains the main striker after the club's failed move for Victor Osimhen.

Confirmed Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1): Sanchez; Gusto, Fofana, Colwill, Cucurella; Caicedo, Fernandez; Madueke, Palmer, Neto; Jackson.
