Confirmed Chelsea lineup vs Leicester City at home

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has named his starting line-up for the Premier League clash against Leicester City this afternoon.

The Blues are currently fifth in the standings with 46 points and can jump into the top four with a victory over the Foxes at Stamford Bridge.

Ahead of the game, Maresca has made seven changes to the XI.

Robert Sanchez continues in goal for the west London giants, but there are three changes in the backline to face the Foxes.

Benoit Badiashile and Trevoh Chalobah have dropped to the bench while Malo Gusto has been sidelined due to injury.

Levi Colwill will partner Tosin Adarabioyo in central defence. Wesley Fofana has returned after a long injury lay-off. He will start at right-back with Marc Cucurella on the opposite end.

In midfield, Reece James has been left out of the matchday squad as a precautionary measure. Enzo Fernandez is set to partner Moises Caicedo with Cole Palmer in the number 10 role.

Elsewhere, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Tyrick George and Shim Mheuka make way. Pedro Neto and Jadon Sancho start on the right and left wing with Christopher Nkunku leading the line.

Confirmed Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Leicester: Sanchez; Fofana, Tosin, Colwill, Cucurella; Caicedo, Fernandez; Neto, Palmer, Sancho; Nkunku,
