With AFCON 2022 competition having started on 9th of January until February 6th the blues will be without Mendy who is representing Senegal. If they play until the final day then Chelsea could be without him for a whole month.

Andrea Christensen had tested positive for Covid-19 and his on isolation. If all the aforementioned players in injury and virus issues except Mendy and Chilwell. Don’t recover in time for today then Tuchel may be in a difficult position to pick his starting eleven.

But a squad depth in the Londoners should help the boss possibly to start with Kepa between the sticks. While in his last line of defence he may consider Silva and Rudiger as well as Sarr in a back three.

A midfield of Cesar, Jorginho, Kovacic and Alonso is possible while a front three of Kai, Mount and Lukaku. Should help score goals to help Chelsea pick three of the points from the Pep’s side.
