Chelsea looks to bounce back from two straight disappointing results in the league when it visits Brentford on Friday, Sept. 18.
The Blues could only draw Hull City 2-2 last weekend, which followed a 2-1 defeat to Arsenal the previous weekend.
Those results left Xabi Alonso's side in sixth place ahead of the final round of fixtures before the extended September-October international window.
Alonso will have several injuries to work through, as a number of players will face late fitness tests ahead of the game at the Gtech Community Stadium.
The Spaniard said Moises Caicedo, Marco Palestra, Reece James, Jordan Henderson and João Pedro, who just withdrew from the Brazil squad with an undisclosed injury, could all still feature.
With a number of changes
potentially forced upon him, here is the lineup Alonso could name for Friday's game at Brentford.
Chelsea predicted lineup vs Brentford
- Goalkeeper: Emiliano Martínez
- Defenders: Wesley Fofana, Maxence Lacroix, Levi Colwill
- Midfielders: Pedro Neto, Reece James, Romeo Lavia, Pep Chavarría
- Attackers: Cole Palmer, Danny Welbeck, Morgan Rogers
