OFFICIAL: Chelsea lineup vs Sevilla – Mendy starts

Chelsea face West Ham at Stamford Bridge in just under an hour, and the teams are in!

As is traditional, UEFA have released the team news surprisingly early, catching everyone off guard.

Frank Lampard has been able to put Edouard Mendy back in goal after an international duty injury, while Cesar Azpilicueta drops out at right back for Reece James.

Thiago Silva also returns, at the expense of Andreas Christensen, but the rest of the team is the same as it was against Southampton at the weekend.

We might have expected more rotation, but clearly this is a massive game for Lampard and the team. Winning tonight sets us up very nicely for the rest of the group stage, but there will be serious questions if we lose.

Here are the full team line-ups for Chelsea vs Sevilla (kick off at 20:00 pm GMT)

Chelsea XI: Mendy, Chilwell, Silva, Zouma, James; Jorginho, Kante; Pulisic, Havertz, Mount; Werner.

Subs: Kepa, Caballero, Rudiger, Christensen, Abraham, Tomori, Kovacic, Giroud, Hudson-Odoi, Azpilicueta, Ziyech, Emerson.
