Enzo Maresca has made four changes to his side for our opening UEFA Champions League fixture, including the return of Cole Palmer.
The Blues take on Bayern Munich in Germany this evening, with kick-off at 8pm UK time, looking to get our European campaign off to a winning start.
To that end, there are four changes to the starting line-up from the side which drew at Brentford in the Premier League on Saturday. That includes the return of Palmer from the start, having made his comeback from injury off the bench at the weekend.
Palmer looks set to join Enzo Fernandez and Pedro Neto as one of three attacking players, behind striker Joao Pedro. Fernandez's place in midfield is likely to be taken by Reece James, who also returned off the bench at Brentford, who comes back in from the start to captain Chelsea alongside Moises Caicedo. Jamie Gittens and Facundo Buonanotte make way.
In defence, there are changes to both full-backs, where Malo Gusto and Marc Cucurella come in for Wesley Fofana and Jorrel Hato. Trevoh Chalobah and Tosin Adarabioyo continue in the centre, ahead of goalkeeper Robert Sanchez.
Estevao Willian is among the 12 Chelsea substitutes allowed in this competition, having missed the weekend's game due to illness.
Bayern Munich are unchanged from the team which beat Hamburg 5-0 here on Saturday, with a familiar front four of ex-Premier League forwards Michael Olise, Serge Gnabry, Luis Diaz and Harry Kane. Nicolas Jackson, currently on loan from Chelsea, is on their bench.
