Chelsea have Plymouth Argyle as their opponents in the fourth round fixture of the FA Cup at Stamford Bridge over the upcoming weekend.
Thomas Tuchel’s men will return to on-field action on the back of a lengthy break and will hope to put out a good display to advance to the next round of the cup competition.
Let us now have a look at how Thomas Tuchel might set up his Chelsea side against Plymouth Argyle –
3-4-2-1
Marcus Bettinelli will be in line to earn a rare berth on the starting team sheet and take over the goalkeeping gloves from Kepa.
In the defensive lineup for the home side, expect Malang Sarr and Trevoh Chalobah to be joined by Stamford Bridge contract rebel Antonio Rudiger.
The likes of Ross Barkley and Ruben Loftus-Cheek, both of whom were retained by the Blues beyond the January transfer window, could be poised for earning starting roles in midfield.
In the final third of the pitch, Romelu Lukaku should be joined by Callum Hudson-Odoi and Hakim Ziyech with Timo Werner likely to start on the bench.
