2 Ways Chelsea Could Line Up vs Watford As Romelu Lukaku Set To Return Revealed

Chelsea are without Kante, Kovacic, and Chilwell for the Watford game. James, Jorginho, and Werner are doubts. Here are the 2 possible ways the Blues could line up vs Watford on Wednesday night;

Option 1: Christensen, Cesar back in

After the Blues dropped points against Man United, a comeback is necessary to get their title challenge back on track.

Chelsea may be without Reece James at right-back and an option to replace him could be moving Azpilicueta wide again.

Lukaku’s return could provide the necessary firepower upfront, which would allow the Blues to play a more defensive wingback.

Mendy; Christensen, Chalobah, Rudiger; Azpilicueta, Jorginho, Loftus-Cheek, Alonso; Mount, Havertz, Lukaku.

Option 2: Some Key Changes

Chelsea have played 2 intense games back to back and a few daring changes could be on the cards against easier opposition.

Saul Niguez could return from the cold to get another chance in a Blue shirt to give Jorginho the time he needs to rest.

Malang Sarr could be another one with a shout to start, while Callum Hudson-Odoi could ensure Chelsea’s attacking threat on the right side remains intact.
