American central defender Matt Miazga will be handed his Chelsea debut two months after joining from New York Red Bulls. The 20-year-old, who stands at 6ft 4in and is already an international for the US, has only played 42 career matches. His inclusion games with both John Terry and Gary Cahill missing from the squad - neither player makes the bench, with Guus Hiddink confirming that the pair have minor injuries. Terry has an Achilles complaint and Cahill was hurt on England duty in the win against Germany, a problem that kept him out of the Netherlands defeat. Guus Hiddink has named an experimental side for the game at Villa Park with Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Kenedy starting, as well as Loic Remy. Alexandre Pato could make his debut, while Radamel Falcao could play for the first time since October - both have been named on the bench.
Hapa Chelsea lazima ikamue mtu 0-3
Arsenal Petr Cech is back with the group after his recent calf strain but Arsene Wenger has not decided if he will be included in Saturday’s matchday squad. David Ospina returned from international duty with Colombia unscathed and could retain his place.
Predicted XI: Ospina; Bellerin, Gabriel, Koscielny, Monreal; Coquelin, Elneny; Ozil, Sanchez, Campbell; Welbeck.
Hapa Lazima Watford wakubali 2-1
Fabian Delph, Joe Hart, Vincent Kompany, Raheem Sterling and Yaya Toure are all unavailable through injury.
Kevin De Bruyne and Samir Nasri return after lengthy absences, although both are lacking in match fitness.
Prediction ni ka-draw: 1-1/2-2
Christian Benteke has been ruled out of Liverpool’s clash with title-chasing Tottenham on Saturday after sustaining an injury on international duty. The Belgium striker returned to Merseyside early after picking up a knee problem and is undergoing further assessments by the club’s medical staff. Reds manager Jurgen Klopp may be short on attacking options for the visit of Maurucio Pochettino’s side, with the German also revealing that Roberto Firmino will face a late fitness test.
