Chelsea FC XI vs Southampton: Starting lineup, confirmed team news and injury latest for Premier League

By Daily Sports Nigeria on April 9, 2022

Romelu Lukaku and Hakim Ziyech faced late fitness tests ahead of Chelsea’s trip to Southampton.

The pair both missed training on Thursday with what Thomas Tuchel described as “little problems”.

Ziyech, however, was fit enough to make the bech as Tuchel opted to rotate. Timo Werner lineup alongisde Kai Havertz in attack and Ruben Loftus-Cheek is afforded a rare start at the base of midfield.

“Hudson-Odoi is still out, and we are a bit in doubt with Romelu Lukaku and Hakim Ziyech," Tuchel said on Friday.

“Romelu has Achilles pain, as well, just pain, nothing major. They were not in training yesterday due to little problems.

“We hope to have them in training but need a test and confirmation from training.”

Ben Chilwell is a long-term absentee.
