Chelsea face Huddersfield at Stamford Bridge in just under an hour, and the teams are in!
Antonio Conte’s side played on Sunday, but nobody thought he would go too strong on the rotation for such an important game.
Instead, the Italian has outflanked everyone, and picked a much changed team.
Right from the back, where Willy Caballero starts, through a back three which sees Gary Cahill replaced by Andreas Christensen, to a front line which has Tiemoue Bakayoko, Eden Hazard and Olivier Giroud replaced by Pedro, Willian and Alvaro Morata.
There should still be enough quality in this team to see off the Terriers, but this one could be a little closer than expected. It’s a risky move from the Chelsea boss, we’ll find out if it ends up paying off in just a few hours.
Here are the full team line-ups for Chelsea vs Leicester (kick off at 15:00 pm GMT):
