Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante has failed to make the matchday squad ahead of their Champions League encounter away to Roma on Tuesday night.
The 26-year-old has been sidelined since the international break when he suffered a hamstring injury while on France duty.
Antonio Conte has opted to make one change to his starting XI as Gary Cahill starts at centre-back while Cesar Azpilicueta takes Davide Zappacosta's place at right wing-back.
The Giallorossi, meanwhile, make a few alterations from the reverse fixture a few weeks ago as Alessandro Florenzi, Daniele de Rossi and Stephan El Shaarawy start.
Chelsea currently lead Group C with seven points, two ahead of second-placed Roma.
Roma: Alisson, Juan, Kolarov, Fazio, Florenzi, Nainggolan, Strootman, De Rossi, Perotti, Dzeko, El Shaarawy
Subs: Skorupski, Moreno, Manolas, Pellegrini, Under, Gonalons, Gerson
Chelsea: Courtois, Rudiger, David Luiz, Cahill, Azpilicueta, Bakayoko, Fabregas, Alonso, Pedro, Morata, Hazard
Subs: Caballero, Christensen, Zappacosta, Kenedy, Drinkwater, Willian, Batshuayi
