Confirmed Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Brentford, Palmer & James start

17 January 2026 - 15:07

Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior has confirmed the starting line-up for the Premier League clash against Brentford at Stamford Bridge.

  • Chelsea set to earn £4m with Guehi's Man City move
  • Man Utd to sign former Chelsea star on loan?



  • The Blues are currently four points adrift of fourth-placed Liverpool and have the opportunity to close the gap if the Reds fail to beat Burnley.

    Ahead of the game, Rosenior has made several changes from the 3-2 loss to Arsenal in the first leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final in midweek.

    Robert Sanchez continues in goal for the west London giants.

    In front of him, Reece James is back in the mix at right-back after a knock. Tosin Adarabioyo and Trevoh Chalobah make up the central defence.

    Marc Cucurella features at left-back again, while Moises Caicedo is back from suspension to partner Enzo Fernandez in the centre of the park.

    In attack, it's Pedro Neto and Alejandro Garnacho on the right and left wing. Cole Palmer starts in the no.10 role on his return from injury.

    Joao Pedro has got the nod to lead the line in the London derby.

    Confirmed Chelsea line-up vs Brentford: Sanchez; James, Tosin, Chalobah, Cucurella; Caicedo, Enzo; Neto, Palmer, Garnacho; Pedro.
