But Sanchez has recovered and starts at Stamford Bridge.

Romeo Lavia anchors the midfield, with Moises Caicedo again starting at right-back.

Christopher Nkunku, who also missed the 4-1 victory over Djurgardens due to an issue picked up in training, is not in the squad.

“The medical staff are going to tell me something more [on Thursday],” Maresca said of Nkunku’s injury.
