Sports Mole looks at how Chelsea could line up in Sunday's Premier League clash with Crystal Palace.

Chelsea boss Graham Potter will make changes to his starting side for Sunday's Premier League clash with Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge.

Denis Zakaria limped off in Thursday's 2-1 loss to Fulham in the league, and the midfielder is expected to be replaced in the starting XI by Jorginho.

Joao Felix, meanwhile, was sent off on his debut against the Whites, with the Portugal international, who has only just arrived on loan from Atletico Madrid, facing a three-game suspension.

Hakim Ziyech is likely to be the player to replace Felix against Palace, while Marc Cucurella is battling to be involved as the left-sided wing-back at the expense of Lewis Hall.

David Datro Fofana and Benoit Badiashile were both on the bench against Fulham and will be hoping to make their league debuts against Palace.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is also an option, having recovered from a back injury, but the forward is currently being strongly linked with an exit.

Chelsea could have Ruben Loftus-Cheek back in their squad for this match, but N'Golo Kante, Raheem Sterling, Reece James, Wesley Fofana, Armando Broja, Christian Pulisic, Edouard Mendy and Ben Chilwell remain on the sidelines through injury.

Chelsea possible starting lineup: Kepa; Chalobah, T Silva, Koulibaly; Azpilicueta, Jorginho, Kovacic, Cucurella; Mount, Havertz, Ziyech
