Chelsea face Leicester at Stamford Bridge in just under an hour, and the teams are in!
With his side short of goals in their last couple of games, Antonio Conte keeps faith laregly with the same team that played Arsenal in the Carabao Cup in midweek.
The only two changes are the return of Tiemoue Bakayoko to replace Danny Drinkwater in midfield, and the captain Gary Cahill playing in defence with Andreas Christensen apparently rested.
Many were expecting Conte to bring Pedro or Willian back into the team to add some creativity, so this persistence with the 352 is somewhat surprising.
