Predicted Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Atalanta, Caicedo starts

09 December 2025 - 18:44

Chelsea will be aiming to return to winning ways when they face Atalanta in tonight's Champions League clash.

  • Chelsea want Spanish manager as next boss
  • Juventus want to sign Liverpool star
  • Ahead of the game, manager Enzo Maresca is expected to make a few changes from the goalless draw against Bournemouth.

    Formation: 4-2-3-1

    Predicted Line-up:

    Robert Sanchez has been an undisputed starter in the Premier League and Champions League games. He is guaranteed to feature between the sticks.

    The backline could stay unchanged. Malo Gusto, Wesley Fofana, Trevoh Chalobah and Marc Cucurella are poised to keep their respective places.

    Moises Caicedo is serving a domestic suspension, but he is eligible to play in Europe. He should line up alongside Reece James in central midfield.

    This could see Enzo Fernandez operating as the number 10. Cole Palmer has just returned from injury and could be given a breather tonight.

    Pedro Neto and Jamie Gittens could line up on the right and left wing respectively. Joao Pedro could lead the line with Liam Delap injured.

    Predicted Chelsea line-up: Sanchez; Gusto, Fofana, Chalobah, Cucurella; James, Caicedo; Neto, Fernandez, Gittens; Pedro.
