Eden Hazard will start at the centre of Chelsea's attack with Alvaro Morata dropping to the bench for the trip to Manchester City, while N'Golo Kante misses out on a place in the squad.
The misfiring Morata started last weekend's 2-1 defeat at Manchester United but has been replaced in Antonio Conte's starting XI by Pedro, with Hazard moving into a false nine role.
The Italian's other change sees Cesc Fabregas start alongside Danny Drinkwater in midfield as France international Kante sits out the game due to illness.
