Team news is in. Chelsea’s Premier League campaign is about to get underway at Huddersfield.
We’re buzzing. Even after the disappointing performance in the Community Shield, nothing can dull our excitement to see what kind of football Maurizio Sarri’s Chelsea will be playing this season.
Jorginho makes his Premier League debut today after signing from Napoli last month. He has impressed throughout pre-season and we fancy him to play a big part in the outcome of today’s game.
Thibaut Courtois’ successor, Kepa Arrizabalaga, has been fast-tracked to the starting eleven and will also be making his Premier League debut today, as he takes to the pitch in a Chelsea shirt for the very first time.
Alvaro Morata keeps his place at the spearhead of the attack, despite Olivier Giroud’s return to first-team training.
What do you think of the lineup, Blues? Is it strong enough to get the three points today?
Here’s your Chelsea team this afternoon, which includes a debut for @Kepa_46! 👐#HUDCHE pic.twitter.com/H7Ety290fQ
