Wesley Fofana is recalled to the Chelsea starting lineup for Saturday's Premier League fixture at Crystal Palace.
The £70m summer signing was one of several names surprisingly dropped for Graham Potter's first game in charge against Red Bull Salzburg before the international break.
However, the Frenchman is back in the centre of defence to line up alongside Thiago Silva in what appears to be a 4-3-3 formation.
With Marc Cucurella sidelined through illness, Ben Chilwell returns at left-back, while there is also a start for Mason Mount in central midfield.
Raheem Sterling had been used as a left wing-back versus Red Bull Salzburg, but the former Manchester City man will seemingly feature further down the flank for the game at Selhurst Park.
Kai Havertz and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang are also named in the front three, with Armando Broja having to be content with a spot among the replacements.
Conor Gallagher, who represented the Eagles on loan last season, will also begin the match from the substitutes' bench.
Crystal Palace: Guaita; Clyne, Ward, Guehi, Mitchell; Olise, Doucoure, Eze; Ayew, Edouard, Zaha
