Chelsea continued her charge for qualifying in the Champions League when they visit the local rivals of Brentford in the Premier League on Sunday.
The victory over another London opponent, Tottenham Hotspur, propelled them to fourth place after mid -week victories for the Newcastle United and Manchester City competitors. Three other points against Brentford will ensure that Chelsea stays in the Champions League places before next weekend.
The Blues welcomed a trio of key attackers during the triumph of the Spurs, but are still without several teams for the trip to the Gtech community stadium.
Here’s how Enzo Maresca could line Chelsea on Sunday.
GK: Robert Sanchez – The Spaniard has often been quite criticized for errors and generally subparameter screens this season, but obtained a white sheet Thursday after a fantastic backup of Heung-Min son late during the day.
RB: Reece James – The club captain was only used on the bench against the Spurs while Chelsea continues to manage his minutes. However, he could return to XI Sunday in place of Malo Gusto.
CB: Tosin Adarabioyo – Trevoh Chalobah produced an impressive performance to keep Dominic Solanke calm in the middle of the week, but Adarabioyo could return to programming with thick and fast games.
CB: Levi Colwill – The English international came against compatriot Solanke but faces a completely different proposal from Yoane Wissa cunning and diminutive on Sunday. Wesley Fofana’s injury puts even more waiting on Colwill to direct the background.
LB: Marc Cucurella – Cucurella was a key member of the severe defense of Chelsea in the middle of the week, but his defensive references will be tested by the tireless Bryan Mbeumo. The Cameroon International has achieved six contributions to the goal in seven matches against the Blues.
DM: Moises Caicedo – Caicedo’s main responsibility will be to chain Mikkel’s living damsgaard. The Brentford star will return to the departure formation and have managed ten assists in the Premier League this quarter.
DM: Enzo Fernandez – The winner of the Chelsea mid -week match has been impressive in recent weeks, rediscovering his attacker mojo at the ideal time. He could be the difference manufacturer this weekend.
RW: Noni Madueke – Another Jadon Sancho lameness means that repatriated Madueke is expected to return to alignment after his recent injury. He came up against the bench against the Spurs.
AM: Cole Palmer – Things have been surprisingly difficult for the Talisman of Chelsea lately, but sublime help reminded the faithful of Stamford Bridge on Thursday of his immense talent. In good shape, he can alone dismiss the blues to glory.
LW: Pedro Neto – Neto can move on the left side Sunday to accommodate the expected return of Madueke. The Portuguese will aim to return to his best relentless.
ST: Nicolas Jackson – The return of Jackson was welcomed against the Spurs and he offered a largely encouraging exhibition. It will aim to return among the objectives as quickly as possible.
