Enzo Maresca has made five changes to his starting line-up for today's Champions League clash with Atalanta.
The Blues head into today's game off the back of a goalless draw against Bournemouth on Saturday and Maresca was always going to have to make at least two changes to today's XI, with Cole Palmer left at home as the club attempt to manage his workload following two months out and Liam Delap forced off with a shoulder injury at the weekend.
There was also always likely to be an alteration in the midfield, too, as Moises Caicedo's three-match domestic ban does not apply to European matches.
Robert Sanchez keeps his place in goal and there are two changes expected in our backline, as Josh Acheampong and Benoit Badiashile come into the side, with Malo Gusto and Wesley Fofana dropping out.
Caicedo starts in midfield and seems likely to line up alongside Reece James, with Enzo Fernandez in the more advanced attacking position and Pedro Neto and Jamie Gittens on the flanks.
Joao Pedro should start up top and a strong bench includes Estevao Willian, Alejandro Garnacho, Facundo Buonanotte, Tyrique George and Marc Guiu.
