Chelsea play host to Ajax in the Champions League on Tuesday night looking to register their third successive win in the competition.
The Premier League outfit occupy top spot in Group H courtesy of victories on the road against Lille and their upcoming opponents.
However, Frank Lampard's side head into the reverse fixture with the Dutch giants still having to contend with numerous injury concerns in several areas of the pitch.
Here, Sports Mole predicts how the West Londoners could line up for the game at Stamford Bridge.
Out: Ruben Loftus-Cheek (Achilles), Antonio Rudiger (pelvis)
Doubtful: N'Golo Kante (groin), Ross Barkley (ankle), Andreas Christensen (hamstring),
Lampard has suggested that N'Golo Kante is finally back in contention for Chelsea after recovering from a groin problem.
However, as a result of Jorginho being due to serve a domestic suspension at the weekend, Lampard may opt against taking a risk on the World Cup winner.
The majority of the team should remain the same after Saturday's 2-1 victory over Watford, with Marcos Alonso most likely to be brought back into the lineup in place of Emerson Palmieri.
Callum Hudson-Odoi and Michy Batshuayi are also pushing for starting roles, although the recent goalscoring contributions of Christian Pulisic and Tammy Abraham may prove enough to keep them in the team.
Andreas Christensen and Ross Barkley will be provided with a place on the substitutes' bench should they be deemed fit after hamstring and ankle injuries respectively.
Antonio Rudiger is expected to remain on the sidelines due to an issue with his pelvis.
