Chelsea are back in action this Saturday facing Enzo Maresca’s former club Leicester City away from home in the Premier League.

Maresca is currently pondering his setup and starting lineup for the game, and there are some issues that he is facing.

Both Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo played 90 minutes for their countries in the early hours of Wednesday morning so will naturally have questions marks about their conditions come the weekend.

Romeo Lavia is a doubt with a hamstring issue, although SPTC sources have heard that this is not thought to be anything big and there was actually hope earlier this week that he could still make it, and he might. But it’s looking more unlikely now.
