Chelsea are set for a stern test away from home in the Champions League on Wednesday night as Thomas Tuchel’s men face Juventus in their second group stage outing.
The Blues had edged out Zenit by the narrowest of margins in their opening game of the Champions League campaign with Romelu Lukaku’s strike making all the difference.
Let us now have a look at how Thomas Tuchel might set up his Chelsea side on Wednesday –
3-4-2-1
Edouard Mendy is now fit and back between the sticks for Chelsea but Thomas Tuchel has an injury concern in the form of his full-back Reece James.
Callum Hudson-Odoi could make the most of this opportunity to grab a starting role at wing-back while Ben Chilwell will be in line to earn a recall to replace Marcos Alonso on the left flank.
Mason Mount remains another worry on the injury front for Chelsea and Thomas Tuchel and this could force the German to bring in Kai Havertz in his forward lineup to square up against a tough-looking Juventus defence.
Timo Werner had been Lukaku’s partner up top on the pitch last time around and we could see another game with the duo leading the line.
