Team News: Juan Mata, David Luiz left out of squad

Jose Mourinho has omitted Juan Mata and David Luiz from his Chelsea squad for the visit of Fulham to Stamford Bridge.

Mata has struggled to earn a spot in the side this season, and neither he nor defender Luiz has managed to make the 18-man group for the London derby.

Samuel Eto'o keeps his place in the lineup, while Ramires, John Terry and Andre Schurrle all return to the team after missing the loss to Basel in the Champions League in midweek.

Fulham manager Martin Jol has brought in Darren Bent to replace the injured Dimitar Berbatov, with Fernando Amorbieta and Damien Duff both earning recalls.

Chelsea: Cech; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Cole; Ramires, Mikel; Schurrle, Oscar, Hazard; Eto'o

Fulham: Stockdale; Riether, Hangeland, Amorebieta, Richardson; Duff, Sidwell, Parker, Kačaniklić; Kasami; Bent
