What larks to kick off today’s MBM action. Kick-off at Stamford Bridge is just over 30 minutes away.

From the horse’s mouth, Chelsea’s website – nine changes made by Tuchel:
“In total, Thomas Tuchel brings nine fresh faces in to his starting XI. Kurt Zouma and Mateo Kovacic are the two who keep their place from Wednesday’s win, the Croatian making his 100th start in blue. Kepa is in goal and Emerson is expected to form part of the back three, as he did at Barnsley in the previous round. Andreas Christensen returns from illness and captain Mason Mount from suspension. Olivier Giroud leads the line and there is a place in midfield for Billy Gilmour. Callum Hudson-Odoi and Ben Chilwell are the wing-backs.”
Correction on previous line-up tweeted. Mason Mount takes the armband, Kai Havertz makes the bench instead of Mendy #CHESHU https://t.co/LBEjV4n8qN
