Frank Lampard finally has all of his summer signings available, but Hakim Ziyech will have to wait for his first start in the Premier League after being named on the bench.

The Blues boss has opted for a change of tactics, switching to a back three for the trip to Manchester.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, on the other hand, is without several key players, with Mason Greenwood forced to settle for a place on the bench while Anthony Martial remains suspended and Alex Telles is out injured.

Harry Maguire recovers to make the starting XI, but for the third match running there is no place in the team for Paul Pogba, who joins Edinson Cavani on the bench.

Will we see the Uruguayan at some point? Find out live on talkSPORT at 17:30.
