Chelsea v Fulham: Premier League – live

Fulham #Fulham

Enzo Fernandez goes straight into the Chelsea team, with Benoit Badiashile and Mykhailo Mudryk also in the starting XI. Hakim Ziyech, who was a signature away from joining PSG, plays as well.

There are three changes in all from the 0-0 draw at Liverpool a fortnight ago. Fernandez, Mudryk and the fit-again Reece James replace Trevoh Chalobah, Jorginho and Lewis Hall.

Fulham are unchanged from their last league game, the 1-0 defeat at home to Spurs.

Chelsea (possible 4-2-3-1) Kepa; James, Thiago, Badiashile, Cucurella; Gallagher, Fernandez; Ziyech, Mount, Mudryk; Havertz.

Substitutes: Bettinelli, Azpilicueta, Chilwell, Chalobah, Koulibaly, Chukwuemeka, Madueke, Sterling, D Fofana.
