Kepa Arizablaga's foot issue prevents him from playing, therefore Eduoard Mendy, who gave up a goal in his previous game, will stay in goal for the Blues. In order to try to keep things organized at the back throughout the entire game, Trevoh Chalobah will hold his spot and team up with Kalidou Koulibaly in place of Thiago Silva in the center of Chelsea's defense.

Marc Cucurella will continue to work tirelessly as the left-back while Cesar Azpilicueta will fill in at right-back. They would both need to move forward and join the attack while maintaining their defensive shapes.
Midfield
Mateo Kovacic, Denis Zakaria, and Conor Gallagher will serve as the midfield's pillars.for Chelsea as they look to get a stranglehold in the game at the centre of the park. The three of them will have to create decent opportunities in the final third and efficiently distribute possession.
Kai Havertz will be available for selection on the bench as he awaits his chance to make an impact in the second half if Potter decides to call upon his services.
Attack
Hakim Ziyech will operate in the right-wing while Christian Pulisic hopes to produce an influential display on the left.
Armando Broja will spearhead Chelsea’s attack on his own up top. He will have to figure out a way to cause a few problems for the Sky Blues’ defenders in midweek.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will have to be content with a spot on the bench but might come on to influence the game in the final quarter if the Blues are in need of a goal by then.
