Today is the day – Chelsea take on PSG in the Champions League, a true knockout test against European giants in the top competition since way back in 2023 when we were brushed aside by Real Madrid.

So who does Liam Rosenior pick? There are questions marks all over the team, starting in goal.

Rosenior goes with tried and tested James in midfield setup

-----------------------------------------------------------

Robert Sanchez has been number one all season, but lost his place after a disaster against Arsenal. We suspect **Filip Jorgensen** keeps on as number one, despite Sanchez’s long kicking potentially being very handy.

Another dilemma is who to play in midfield. Andrey Santos also lost his place recently, despite a good run.

We reckon we’ll see **Malo Gusto** at right back, allowing **Reece James** to play in the midfield.

**Trevoh Chalobah** and **Wesley Fofana** are the obvious pair in the middle, with **Marc Cucurella** probably fit to play at left back despite a while out.

**Moises Caicedo** will then partner James centrally, with **Enzo Fernandez** deployed ahead of them.

**Cole Palmer** got a rest at the weekend and will start on one side of the attack, with **Pedro Neto** just pipping Alejandro Garnacho to the place on the left.

The in-form **Joao Pedro** will of course be up top. A huge amount of this game will be decided by his form.
