Chelsea vs Luton Team News
Pochettino will now be getting to grips with what side he deems his ‘starting XI’, however, the big question for the Luton Town is his midfield.
Record signing Moises Caicedo got a brief cameo agaisnt the Hammers, which wasnt an ideal debut. He’ll likely start at the Bridge, but will Romeo Lavia? We think so.
Raheem Sterling should keep his place. He was by far Chelsea’s best attacker on Sunday.
The back four should also be similar, with injuries pretty much deciding the backine for the Argentine coach.
