Chelsea are looking to get back to what they were a while ago and will try to do so with the help of a new coach in Enzo Maresca, the man who managed to bring Leicester City back to the top level of English football.
For this first league match, the blue team will not have an important player like Reece James, who has to serve a suspension.
The team coached by Pep Guardiola is in almost all the pools as the favourite to lift the Premier League this season, and to do so they will have to start off by winning this edition of the English league.
Jack Grealish will be doubtful for this match due to a muscle injury
Chelsea: Jörgensen, Malo Gusto, Fofana, Badiashile, Cucurella, Mudryk, Enzo Fernández, Moisés Caicedo, Cole Palmer, Nkunku, Nicolas Jackson
