David Luiz will take his place in the middle of the Paris Saint-Germain midfield for tonight's last-16 Champions League first leg against Chelsea.

The Brazilian, who swapped London for Paris last summer, will seemingly operate in a three-man midfield behind a front three of Ezequiel Lavezzi, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Edinson Cavani.

Thiago Silva and Marquinhos, meanwhile, will be the two centre-backs for the home team.

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has brought Ramires into his midfield alongside mainstay Nemanja Matic, with Cesc Fabregas moving into a more advanced area.

Diego Costa also returns to the XI as expected, while Gary Cahill is given the nod over Kurt Zouma at centre-back.
