Goal-keeper
Vincente Guaita (8.0 Cr) has been a pillar in front of his goal with strong responses to the opposition which will be tested to the limit but should not stop him from making his presence known in this contest.
Defenders
Cesar Azpilicueta (9.5 Cr) was trying to raise morale from the sidelines in the last UCL match but should be able to play a similar role on the ground that could lead to a strong defensive performance as the center back.
Antonio Rudiger (9.0 Cr) will be sour from his performance in the last match that earned him a crucial goal and a brilliant contribution in his audition for a move to Madrid next season with the current aim to bring silverware for his team.
Marcos Alonso (9.0 Cr) played an important role in pushing the team’s fighting spirit with a golden goal that did not count highlighting his potential to move freely in attack and defense.
Reece James (8.0 Cr) was not at his best-attacking form in the last match but the young talent holds amazing potential that can be regained and prove vital for this fixture that makes him our prime choice.
Midfielders
Wilfred Zaha (10 Cr) has been in good form with his FA Cup fixtures that saw him score 1 goal along with 1 assist in the last match added with his ability to create fantastic chances that makes him a potential game-changer.
Cheikhou Kouyate (8.5 Cr) has the potential to score impressive goals added with his skills to intercept which can help out in retaining possession for this fixture.
Mason Mount (9.5 Cr) scored brilliantly in his match against Real Madrid and has been a hero for his team with a building momentum that can play a key role this season which makes him our prime choice.
Forwards
Jean-Philippe Mateta (9.0 Cr) found the net in his last match and has scored with impressive accuracy which can allow him to create additional chances for this match.
Timo Werner (9.0 Cr) scored a vital goal to bring Chelsea back into contention before being subbed out later in the game which should allow him to aim for his 3rd back to back goal in 3 matches.
Kai Havertz (9.0 Cr) has been in an improving form this season with his ability to create chances for his team along with assists and goals that could keep him focused on making his mark in this fixture.
Captain And Vice-Captain
M.Mount is our captain because of his ability to create impressive goals which should not stop in this contest.
