(4-2-1-3): Jackson and Madueke benched, Enzo and Felix finally start and Palmer’s position changed- Chelsea lineups against Leicester City as Enzo Maresca forced to changed formation due to injury nightmare

Due to the fact that Chelsea will be returning to Premier League play on Saturday against Leicester City, there are some concerns over injuries.
For the first time since he led the Foxes back to the Premier League in the previous season, Enzo Maresca will be making his return to the King Power Stadium. That being said, the Italian could have some significant selection decisions to make before then.

The starting eleven for the Blues has been rather stable in the Premier League, but Maresca has been making significant adjustments to the lineup for games in the European Championship and the cup. According to reports, this situation is causing Christopher Nkunku a great deal of frustration.

Cole Palmer and Levi Colwill, both of whom are players for Chelsea, withdrew from their England duty duties last week. In the last minutes of the match against Manchester United on November 5, Palmer was subjected to a vicious challenge by Lisandro Martinez. As a result, Palmer was unable to participate in training leading up to the match against Arsenal, which ended in a tie.

Palmer did not appear to be in a comfortable position as he exited the pitch that afternoon, despite the fact that he played the entire 90 minutes against the Gunners.

After taking a week off from international duty, Maresca will be hoping that any problems that arose with Palmer, who was seen in training on Monday, will have been resolved. In the meanwhile, Colwill was spotted returning to action at Cobham, despite the fact that he had withdrawn from the England team due to a problem that was not stated.

Romeo Lavia, on the other hand, was forced to leave the game against Arsenal, but he subsequently confirmed that he had suffered a “little knock.”

Despite the fact that he was chosen for the Belgium team, he did not participate in the games that were played against Italy and Israel. This was due to the fact that Domenico Tedesco, the manager of Belgium, confirmed that he was still dealing with a hamstring injury.

During the pre-match news conference that Maresca will be holding this week, it is anticipated that he will offer an update on Lavia.

Malo Gusto was another player who was forced off late in the match against Arsenal, and as a result, he decided to retire from the France Under-21 side. The right-back was absent from two games in September due to reasons that were comparable to those described above, but Gusto was also among the players who were seen returning to training at the beginning of the week.

Despite concerns about his injuries from the previous week, his countryman Wesley Fofana was also included in that group. “Experiencing pain in his left knee,” the centre-back who had been named to the senior France team, decided to withdraw from the competition.

Chelsea has been cautiously maintaining his health this week after he has been absent from action for more than a year. However, the sight of him on the training ground this week is encouraging for the upcoming match against his former club.

Predicted starting lineup for Chelsea to play Leicester
The names Sanchez, Gusto, Fofana, Colwill, Cucurella, Caicedo, Fernandez, Madueke, Palmer, Neto, and Jackson are included in this list.
