Team news
Tammy Abraham won’t be available for Chelsea after he came off against Newcastle on Monday with an ankle injury.
Thiago Silva is a doubt but he could return for the Blues after picking up a muscle problem in the win over Tottenham.
Kai Havertz could also return but as he hasn’t been in action since Tuchel’s first game in charge of the Blues.
Tuchel will likely start with Olivier Giroud up front while Andreas Christensen could continue in defence.
