Kepa And Ziyech To Start, Mount On The Bench: Chelsea’s Predicted XI To Face Barnsley

Thomas Tuchel will be delighted with his start as Chelsea manager and he’ll want to keep the momentum going by progressing through to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup this evening.

With the Blues facing Championship side Barnsley, it’s likely that Tuchel will select a rotated team for this one, even though their next league fixture is against Newcastle on Monday night.

The Tykes have not won a league game since late December but they did beat Norwich City in the last round earlier this month so they will not be pushovers.
