Chelsea vs. Man United team news: Enzo Fernandez, Kobbie Mainoo decisions made for Stamford Bridge showdown

Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior has selected Enzo Fernandez in his starting lineup for Saturday's Premier League fixture against Manchester United.

When quizzed earlier this week on the prospect of Fernandez being handed an immediate recall after a club-imposed two-match ban, Rosenior chose not to reveal his plans.

However, as expected, the Argentina international is selected in his first XI, albeit alongside Moises Caicedo rather than as a number 10.

That has resulted in Cole Palmer being kept in close support of Liam Delap, who has been chosen in place of the absent Joao Pedro.

Andrey Santos is the other player to drop out of the team, with Rosenior making just two alterations from the team that started the 3-0 defeat to Manchester City.

There is a boost on the substitutes' bench as Trevoh Chalobah is selected having passed a fitness test on an ankle injury.

Nevertheless, Chelsea only have two attack-minded players in reserve, including former Man United winger Alejandro Garnacho.

Marc Guiu is also named among the replacements and could make a rare appearance for the Blues.

Chelsea XI: Sanchez, Gusto, Fofana, Hato, Cucurella, Caicedo, Fernandez, Estevao, Palmer, Neto, Delap

Subs: Sharman-Lowe, Acheampong, Chalobah, Adarabioyo, Santos, Essugo, Lavia, Garnacho, Guiu
