The team news is in for Chelsea's clash with Manchester City in the Premier League tonight, a game which could see Liverpool crowned Premier League champions.
Jurgen Klopp's side will be crowned top-flight champions for the first time in 30 years if holders Manchester City don't win at Chelsea.
Chelsea were in a similar position four years ago, when they stopped Tottenham's pursuit of the league title with a 2-all draw which crowned Leicester champions.
Gabriel Jésus will not lead the line for City, as the Brazilian has to make do with a place on the visitors' bench tonight. Fernandinho captains the side, with Raheem Sterling and Bernardo Silva among their other big names in the starting 11. Ben Foden is not in the City squad.
Frank Lampard's Chelsea know a win will increase the gap to fifth-placed Manchester United back to five points. Jorginho returns from suspension for them but does not start.
The hosts are without Fikayo Tomori (ankle), Callum Hudson-Odoi (ankle) and Marco van Ginkel (knee). Olivier Giroud starts up front for them, ably assisted by the likes of Willian, Christian Pulisic, Mason Mount and N'Golo Kanté behind him.
Meanwhile, Manchester City have been cleared to host next week's Premier League clash with Liverpool by the local council.
There had been a request for the fixture to be played at a neutral venue, because it could be a title decider and attract fans.
The executive member for skills, culture and leisure for Manchester City Council, Councillor Luthfur Rahman, explained the reasons for allowing the game to go ahead at City's own ground.
"Following the most recent round of Premier League fixtures which have all taken place behind closed doors the SAG has signalled it has no objections to the above fixture taking place at Etihad Stadium as planned at 8:15pm, Thursday, 2 July," Rahman said in a statement.
"As with all other Premier League matches, this fixture will take place behind closed doors, with no fans present."
