Chelsea play against Leicester City on Saturday afternoon, but Enzo Maresca is facing some selection problems in midfield after Romeo Lavia's injury.
Romeo Lavia failed to feature for his country, Belgium, during this international break despite being called up
The Premier League will return on Saturday after the conclusion of the last international break of the year.The early kickoff will see Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca travel back to his former stomping ground to face the Foxes. The Italian was in charge of Leicester for one season, when he won the Championship before Chelsea came calling.
His start to life in West London has been promising. With a third of the season done, he has led Chelsea to the top three places. The Blues have only lost to the two teams above them this season, making Saturday's trip an easy game on paper.However, Maresca is facing midfield challenges after Romeo Lavia seemingly hurt his hamstring again. The Belgian was called up for international duty but failed to feature in the defeats to Italy and Israel.
