The shock of the 17th day of the Premier League opposes Chelsea (6th) to Manchester City (8th), this Sunday (5.30pm).
On the Blues side, Olivier Giroud does not hold, since Frank Lampard associates Hakim Ziyech, Christian Pulisic and Timo Werner in the offensive sector, with Mason Mount in playmaker. Kai Havertz and Tammy Abraham are also substitutes.
Edouard Mendy, Kurt Zouma, Thiago Silva, Cesar Azpilicueta (for his 400th match with the Blues!) And N’Golo Kanté are present at kick-off.
