Chelsea lineup: latest news

Chelsea did not make it through the international break without an injury scare as Jamie Bynoe-Gittens picked up a knock while defending England Under-21s, but the striker quickly recovered from the concern and is expected to be fit for Saturday’s game.

However, Maresca is concerned about Enzo Fernandez (knee), Pedro Neto (groin) and Benoit Badiashile (unspecified injury), while Dario Essugo (thigh), Cole Palmer (groin), Levi Colwill (knee), Romeo Lavia (thigh) and Mykhaylo Mudryk (doping suspension) are all absent.

Author of two assists in the victory over Wolves, Alejandro Garnacho is ready to make history on Saturday, when he could become the youngest South American player to reach the milestone of 100 Premier League games, at the age of 21, surpassing 22-year-old Gabriel Martinelli.

Estêvão should start on the reserve bench. Since arriving in London, the Brazilian has started among the starters seven times. However, on three occasions, coach Enzo Maresca chose to choose the alternative team, in duels for the English League Cup and Champions League. In the Premier League, the Brazilian started on four occasions, but the last one was in September, in the 3-1 defeat to Brighton.
