Chelsea face Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge in just under an hour, and the teams are in!
It’s a very hard team to make sense of. Kalidou Koulibaly is the one recognised centre back picked.
Perhaps it’s a 343, with Reece James and Marc Cucurella either side of KK, Ruben Loftus-Cheek at right wing back and Ben Chilwell on the left.
That would mean a midfield pair of Enzo Fernandez and Mateo Kovacic, and a front 3 of Mykhailo Mudryk with Kai Havertz and Joao Felix playing in behind.
That seems to make the most sense – but we’re not sure why James wouldn’t then play at right wing back with Benoit Badiahshile in at centre back.
Here are the full team line-ups for Southampton vs Chelsea (kick off at 17:30 pm GMT)
