Sheffield United vs Chelsea – Team News

Chelsea face Sheffield United at Bramall Lane in just under an hour, and the teams are in!

Thomas Tuchel has tweaked his team, with Andreas Christensen the first change at the back. The man he replaced halfway through the game against Tottenham – Thiago Silva – is out.

N’Golo Kante still isn’t fit to start which is a major worry, while Callum Hudson-Odoi is benched for Olivier Giroud, with Timo Werner switching to the wing. The France striker didn’t do too well in Tuchel’s first game against Wolves – but he gets another chance to impress tonight.

There’s also a start for Ben Chilwell in place of Marcos Alonso down the left – this is a big chance for him to show what he can do in a more attacking role, to win his place back from Alonso.

Here are the full team line-ups for Chelsea vs Sheffield United (kick off at 19:15 GMT)
