Enzo Maresca has made six changes to his side for today's Premier League clash against Bournemouth, with Cole Palmer making his first start since mid-September.

The Blues head into today's game off the back of a disappointing 3-1 defeat away to Leeds United and Maresca's men will hope to bounce back immediately during our trip to the coast.

Robert Sanchez keeps his place in goal behind a back four of Malo Gusto, Wesley Fofana, Trevoh Chalobah and Marc Cucurella.

With Moises Caicedo serving the second of his three-game ban, Reece James joins Enzo Fernandez in midfield, as Pedro Neto looks set to start on the right flank, Alejandro Garnacho on the left and Palmer should be in the No.10 role behind Liam Delap up top.

A strong Blues bench includes Andrey Santos, Estevao Willian, Jamie Gittens, Joao Pedro and Marc Guiu.
