Cesar Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso have both returned to the Chelsea starting lineup for Wednesday's Champions League fixture in Lille.

While Azpilicueta has recently been suffering with injury and illness, Alonso has been sidelined due to coronavirus.

However, the pair have been selected in the wing-back positions by head coach Thomas Tuchel, who has opted for a more defensive-minded strategy than usual.

Holding a 2-0 advantage from the first leg of the last-16 tie, Tuchel has selected each of Jorginho, Mateo Kovacic and N'Golo Kante in a three-man midfield.

Christian Pulisic and Kai Havertz make up the forward line, with the likes of Mason Mount, Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner only featuring among the replacements.

With Chelsea reverting to a back three, Thiago Silva is recalled to the defence, with Trevoh Chalobah and Malang Sarr also dropping out of the team.

Subs: Grbic, Raux, Ben Arfa, Lihadji, Gomes, Weah, Zhegrova, Onana, Bradaric
