Head coach Thomas Tuchel will consider making changes to his Chelsea starting lineup for the Premier League fixture at Norwich City on Thursday evening.
Despite blowing Burnley away during the second half of their clash on Saturday, Tuchel must take the Blues' schedule into consideration when selecting his first XI.
Thiago Silva could be rested ahead of games with Newcastle United and Lille, while Tuchel has revealed that Reece James will miss the game with a muscular injury.
Andreas Christensen may return to the centre of the defence to replace Silva, while Callum Hudson-Odoi will be regarded as the most suitable option to deputise for James if no risks are taken on Cesar Azpilicueta, who has missed two games due to injury.
Jorginho will likely replace either Mateo Kovacic or N'Golo Kante in midfield, although Ruben Loftus-Cheek is also an alternative in that position.
With Marcos Alonso taking longer than expected to shake off coronavirus, Saul Niguez will almost certainly remain at left wing-back, and it would come as a surprise if fresh legs are not included in the final third.
Mason Mount and Christian Pulisic could potentially retain their spots in the team, but Romelu Lukaku may be recalled to hand a rest to Kai Havertz.
Having remained as an unused substitute at the weekend, Hakim Ziyech will hope for game time after recovering from an injury picked up back on February 22.
Chelsea possible starting lineup: Mendy; Chalobah, Christensen, Rudiger; Hudson-Odoi, Kovacic, Jorginho, Saul; Mount, Pulisic; Lukaku body check tags ::
