Jorginho also starts in midfield in what will be his first game in the Premier League. But, it is N’Golo Kante’s place in the starting eleven that is surprising, given his late arrival to be a part of the pre-season training.
Callum Hudson-Odoi was tipped to start after a bright preseason. But, the youngster is surprisingly, not even in the matchday squad.
