How Chelsea could line up against Lille

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel expects to have Cesar Azpilicueta back at his disposal for Wednesday's Champions League last-16 second leg with Lille.

The Spaniard missed Sunday's Premier League win over Newcastle United due to a reported bout of illness, but he should be fit enough to take his place on the right-hand side here.

Callum Hudson-Odoi is more of a doubt as he nurses an Achilles injury - the same can be said for Reece James - while long-term absentee Ben Chilwell continues his recovery.

Trevoh Chalobah somehow escaped punishment for a tug of the shirt on Jacob Murphy at the weekend, and the youngster's spot is at risk with Thiago Silva primed to return.

Malang Sarr was given the nod on the left-hand side on Sunday but could now make way for Marcos Alonso, with Tuchel potentially reverting to the same XI that got the job done in the first leg.

Such a move would see Mateo Kovacic return to the engine room ahead of Jorginho alongside N'Golo Kante, while Hakim Ziyech continues on the right flank.

Kai Havertz was once again the hero of the hour for the Blues against Newcastle and will expect to fend off competition from Romelu Lukaku to start up front, as Christian Pulisic - who also scored in the first leg - eyes a return to the left over Timo Werner.

Chelsea possible starting lineup: Mendy; Silva, Christensen, Rudiger; Azpilicueta, Kante, Kovacic, Alonso; Ziyech, Havertz, Pulisic body check tags ::
