Ruben Loftus-Cheek has earned a recall to the Chelsea starting lineup for the Champions League fixture with Malmo.

The midfielder has missed out on a place in the first XI since impressing against Brentford on October 16.

However, a lively display off the substitutes' bench against Newcastle United at the weekend has resulted in the England international lining up alongside Jorginho.

Saul Niguez had also been expected to start in Sweden after receiving praise for his improvement against Southampton in the EFL Cup, but the Spaniard has to settle for a spot among the replacements.

Thomas Tuchel has made just three alterations in total, the other two coming at wing-back with Cesar Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso being restored to the team.

Christian Pulisic, back in the squad after a two-month layoff, and youngster Harvey Vale are among the players on the substitutes' bench who will be hoping for some game time during the second half.

Malmo: Dahlin, Rieks, Rakip, Pena, Colak, Ahmedhodzic, Innocent, Nielsen, Brorsson, Berget, Nanasi
Subs: Ellborg, Diawara, Larsson, Moisander, Lewicki, Olsson, Abubakari, Birmancevic, Nalic, Gwargis, Eile

Chelsea: Mendy; Christensen, Silva, Rudiger; Azpilicueta, Jorginho, Loftus-Cheek, Alonso; Hudson-Odoi, Ziyech; Havertz
Subs: Arrizabalaga, Bettinelli, Pulisic, Chalobah, Saul, Barkley, Chilwell, James, Sarr, Vale body check tags ::
