Graham Potter makes one change to his Chelsea team for today’s game at Liverpool, with Mykhailo Mudryk named on the bench.

Marc Cucurella comes into the side in place of Carney Chukwuemeka, with the possibility Lewis Hall will play in a more advanced role than he did against Crystal Palace.

Thiago Silva and Benoit Badiashile resume their defensive partnership that kept a clean sheet, with Mason Mount and Hakim Ziyech expected to support Kai Havertz in attack.

Mudryk is on the subs’ bench for the first time after Graham Potter said yesterday he would likely have a role to play at some point.


Chelsea: Kepa, Chalobah, Badiashile, Thiago Silva, Cucurella, Jorginho (c), Gallagher, Ziyech, Mount, Hall, Havertz.

Subs Bettinelli, Azpilicueta, Humphreys, Koulibaly, Chukwuemeka, Loftus-Cheek, Mudryk, Aubameyang, D Fofana.

Liverpool: Alisson, Milner (c), Gomez, Konate, Robertson, Bajcetic, Thiago, Keita, Elliott, Gakpo, Salah.

Subs Kelleher, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Tsimikas, Henderson, Jones, Fabinho, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Nunez.

The referee is Michael Oliver
