Predicted Chelsea line-up vs Leicester – FA Cup


Chelsea entertain Leicester City in the quarter-final of the FA Cup today. The Blues will be aiming to keep their hopes of winning a trophy alive this season.

Ahead of the game, they have received a much-needed boost with manager Mauricio Pochettino confirming that Ben Chilwell has recovered from his knee injury.

Predicted Line-up:

Djordje Petrovic has been brilliant in goal for the Blues and he is now the first-choice goalkeeper ahead of Robert Sanchez. We expect the Serbian to feature between the sticks.

In defence, there could be a solitary change from the 3-2 win over Newcastle with Marc Cucurella making way for the return of Chilwell at left-back. 

Enzo Fernandez won’t be available for the game due to suspension. The Argentine World Cup winner picked up his second yellow card of the Cup last time.

This could be a small tactical switch. Conor Gallagher could play in the centre of the park alongside Moises Caicedo. Mykhailo Mudryk could occupy the number 10 role.

The Ukrainian has impressed from the playmaker position in recent outings. His quick dribbling and pace has proved a concern for opposition defenders.

The rest of the attack should stay unchanged. Cole Palmer and Raheem Sterling are expected to feature either side of Nicolas Jackson, who will lead the line.

Predicted Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1): Petrovic; Gusto, Disasi, Chalobah, Chilwell; Gallagher, Caicedo; Palmer, Mudryk, Sterling; Jackson.
