Team News: John Terry recalled for Chelsea

John Terry recalled for Chelsea

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has recalled John Terry to his starting lineup for this evening's Premier League clash with Southampton at Stamford Bridge.

The 34-year-old club captain has not played in the league since the 3-1 defeat to Everton on September 12, but he has been brought back into the side in place of Kurt Zouma.

That is one of four changes made by Mourinho from the team which lost 2-1 to Porto in the Champions League in midweek, with Falcao starting up front in place of Diego Costa, who completes a three-match domestic suspension.

Eden Hazard returns to the lineup alongside Oscar in midfield, with Pedro and Nemanja Matic dropping to the bench.

For the visitors, there is only one change as former Chelsea midfielder Oriol Romeu is given a start against his former club in place of England Under-21s captain James Ward-Prowse, who is only a substitute.

Chelsea: Begovic; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Azpilicueta; Ramires, Fabregas; Willian, Oscar, Hazard; Falcao Subs: Blackman, Zouma, Baba, Matic, Loftus-Cheek, Pedro, Remy

Southampton: Stekelenburg; Cedric, Fonte, van Dijk, Bertrand; Romeu, Wanyama, S. Davis; Tadic, Mane; Pelle Subs: K. Davis, Yoshida, Long, Rodriguez, Martina, Ward-Prowse, Juanmi
