Chelsea’s defence, disastrous in the 3-0 loss to Leeds, sees one change, with Trevoh Chalobah coming in for Kalidou Koulibaly, who was sent off for two yellow cards at Elland Road. Edouard Mendy, whose howler gifted Brenden Aaronson a tap-in to make it 1-0, keeps his place, as do the rest of Thomas Tuchel’s XI.
