Tiémoué Bakayoko makes his debut for Chelsea and Alvaro Morata also starts in Tottenham’s first home league game at Wembley.

Bakayoko has been rushed back from a knee problem as Chelsea are short of midfield options because of Cesc Fabregas’ suspension.

Gary Cahill is also banned, so there is a starting place for Andreas Christensen.

Morata’s inclusion sees Michy Batshuayi drop to the bench, where he is joined by Pedro, who has been struggling with an ankle injury.

Youngsters Kyle Scott and Fikayo Tomori are also among the Blues substitutes.

Tottenham full-back Kieran Trippier returns after an ankle problem.

Spurs are without the injured Danny Rose, Erik Lamela and Georges-Kevin Nkoudou.

Tottenham: Lloris, Trippier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Davies, Dier, Wanyama, Dembele, Eriksen, Alli, Kane.
Subs: Vorm, Walker-Peters, Wimmer, Winks, Sissoko, Son, Janssen.

Chelsea: Courtois, Rudiger, Christensen, Azpilicueta, Luiz, Moses, Kante, Bakayoko, Alonso, Willian, Morata.
Subs: Caballero, Musonda, Kenedy, Scott, Tomori, Batshuayi, Pedro.
