  • The Blues are currently on a four-match winless streak in the Premier League and they will be aiming for a resounding victory today.

    Chelsea are firm favourites to beat Morecambe with home advantage, but Maresca has still picked a strong XI to face the League Two outfit.

    Filip Jorgensen has got the nod in goal ahead of Robert Sanchez.

    In defence, Reece James will make his first start since returning from injury at right-back.

    Tosin Adarabioyo and Axel Disasi make up the central defence with Renato Veiga at left-back.

    The Blues are set to play with a solitary holding midfielder in Romeo Lavia. He is likewise back from injury and will be partnered by Joao Felix.

    Pedro Neto starts on the right wing with Tyrique George on the opposite flank.

    Christopher Nkunku will feature in the no.10 role with Marc Guiu up front.

    Confirmed Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1): Jorgensen; James, Disasi, Tosin, Veiga; Lavia, Felix; Neto, Nkunku, George; Guiu.
