Frank Lampard took off Christian Pulisic and Tammy Abraham midway through the second half of Tuesday’s Champions League win over Lille presumably with the visit of Bournemouth in mind.
Both are in fine form and would expect to continue. Jorginho did not start Chelsea’s previous two Premier League games against Aston Villa and Everton but was involved from the outset against Lille and is likely to return.
Antonio Rudiger made only his second appearance of the season in midweek following knee and groin problems and Lampard must weigh up whether the defender can handle another 90 minutes so soon after his return.
Reece James, Andreas Christensen and Mason Mount are possible alternatives if Lampard seeks to freshen his team up while Ross Barkley is also available following an ankle injury.
Olivier Giroud is hopeful of being fit following illness. Ruben Loftus-Cheek is still some way off a return as he continues his rehabilitation from an Achilles injury.
How we see Chelsea lining up against Bournemouth
Chelsea XI (4-3-3): Kepa, Azpilicueta, Rudiger, Zouma, Emerson; Kante, Jorginho, Kovacic; Willian, Abraham, Pulisic.
