But even with so much quality at his disposal, Stamford Bridge visitors can still expect to witness a wide array of attacking talent in action.Malo Gusto is among those who might play now that Maresca has declared the full-back is once again available.

Following an injury he sustained against Crystal Palace, the Frenchman has missed our last two games. Last week, he participated in modified training with Romeo Lavia, who is still out of the lineup for tomorrow night’s encounter.Maresca stated Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, the summer acquisition who he so successfully collaborated with at Leicester City, would probably get the start against the leaders of League Two.

During his pre-match press conference, our head coach was also explicitly questioned about four Chelsea players.Carney Chukwuemeka, Ben Chilwell, Josh Acheampong, and Tyrique George were all expected to be in the squad, Maresca revealed to the media, subject to today’s training session, which happened after the press conference.

Among those hoping for some playing time are Mykhailo Mudryk and Joao Felix, who has been contributing to the Premier League this season from the bench.Young striker Marc Guiu is another attacker who will be hoping to see some action.

Similar to fellow forward Christopher Nkunku, our summer acquisition from Barcelona made an impression during preseason and has started both of our Conference League games so far in the 2024–25 campaign. Barrow may be three divisions lower in League Two, but they are leading the table under Stephen Clemence, and Maresca has warned of the threat they pose.

For those who are unable to attend, there are still some tickets left for tomorrow’s League Cup play. In the UK, the action may be seen on Sky Sports.
