So Hazard misses out (didn't even make the bus due to his hip injury), but Costa's back again.  Meanwhile, JT makes his return, but only to the bench, which once again is devoid of Pato.  So basically the same as against PSG, with Matic in for Hazard and Cesc pushing up to the No.10 spot.

UP THE CHELS!
