Blues looking to bounce back from Liverpool defeat against visitors who are winless in four

Close

Chelsea will be looking to get back on track in the Premier League this afternoon as they host Newcastle in west London. The Blues saw their impressive early momentum under Enzo Maresca dented slightly in a hard-fought loss away at early pacesetters Liverpool last weekend, continuing their Anfield hoodoo in the process but with more clear signs of the swift progress made under new management.

Chelsea quickly brushed off that disappointment in Europe on Thursday, making wholesale changes once again as their second string produced another statement with a 4-1 Conference League rout of Panathinaikos in Greece. It will be interesting to see if any of that number have forced their way into Maresca’s thinking this afternoon for the visit of an out-of-sorts Newcastle side who sit in the bottom half of the table with no wins in their last four league games.

Captain Reece James starts again today after a rest as the hosts also welcome back Wesley Fofana from suspension and opt for Pedro Neto over Jadon Sancho, though their visitors - whom they also face in the last 16 of the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night - are without Anthony Gordon due to injury in a surprise blow.
