For Chelsea, Eden Hazard continues to wait for his first start of the season as he continues to recover from a broken ankle. Hazard is on the bench, with Willian and Pedro in support of striker Alvaro Morata.

Cesc Fabregas starts over Tiemoue Bakayoko to partner N'Golo Kante in midfield, while captain Gary Cahill is back from the suspension that kept him out of the last three league games.
