Mauricio Pochettino has kept his starting line-up largely the same following the 0-0 draw with Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge in the FA Cup as we travel to Anfield to take on Liverpool in the Premier League tonight.

The only change comes in our defence, where Ben Chilwell returns to the team as captain, replacing Alfie Gilchrist, who was a late addition to the side against Villa following an injury to Levi Colwill.

Chilwell is joined in our back line by Axel Disasi, Benoit Badiashile and Thiago Silva, with Djordje Petrovic continuing as the goalkeeper behind them.

The rest of the team remains the same, meaning Conor Gallagher, Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez are the midfield trio and Cole Palmer is expected to lead the attack, with Raheem Sterling and Noni Madueke on the flanks.

There is a new face on the Blues bench tonight, as Cesare Casadei is included among our substitutes for the first time in a competitive fixture after the midfielder returned from his loan at Leicester City earlier this month.

The Italian is joined on the bench by Christopher Nkunku and Malo Gusto, who both return from injury.

Liverpool also make one change from their last Premier League fixture, a 4-0 win at Bournemouth, with Dominik Szoboszlai coming in to replace Harvey Elliott in midfield.

Chelsea: Petrovic, Disasi, Thiago Silva, Badiashile, Chilwell (c), Gallagher, Caicedo, Enzo, Madueke, Palmer, Sterling
