Chelsea are in action on Boxing Day as they welcome west London neighbours Fulham to Stamford Bridge.

The Blues have the opportunity to go within one point of Liverpool, with the table-topping Reds taking on Leicester City at Anfield a few hours after. As Liverpool found out recently, though, Fulham are a very strong side that can cause anyone problems on their day.

Enzo Maresca will recognise there can be no complacency from his players and that will be the overriding message to his squad in the coming days. After the goalless draw with Everton at the weekend, will the Chelsea head coach make many changes to his side?

Well, below, Bobby Vincent and Lee Wilmot discuss and debate what they would do if they were in Maresca's shoes...

Bobby Vincent

Robert Sanchez was actually really good on Sunday. I'm usually so critical of the Spanish goalkeeper, but I'll give him his flowers for what was a really strong performance. So, he can start in goal, of course.

Personally, I would move Malo Gusto back to right-back and drop Axel Disasi. Marc Cucurella is eligible again and he can play left-back with Tosin Adarabioyo and Levi Colwill starting in the centre of the Blues' back-four.

Even if Romeo Lavia is fit enough to take part, it may be sensible for Maresca to use him from the bench, if at all. In front of him, I would make one change - and it might surprise some of you.

Jadon Sancho to come out of the side. Not because he has been playing badly, actually the opposite, but simply to give him a rest and allow Joao Felix to get some minutes on the left-hand side. Then, Pedro Neto on the right wing, Cole Palmer in the No.10 and Nicolas Jackson leading the line.

Bobby's team: Sanchez; Gusto, Tosin, Colwill, Cucurella; Caicedo, Fernandez; Neto, Palmer, Felix; Jackson.

Lee Wilmot

It looks like Levi Colwill and Tosin Adarabioyo have built up a good partnership at the back and I'd go with those two again at centre-back. The full-backs should be Malo Gusto on the right and Marc Cucurella on the left.

In midfield, Romeo Lavia could be back, but there's no need to rush him with Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo in good form. Ahead of them Cole Palmer obviously sits in the No.10 role - who else would you want?

Who plays either side of him is probably the most intriguing question. I think I'd be inclined to play Jadon Sancho on one side, with Noni Madueke on the other. Nicolas Jackson may have blanked against Everton, but he's the main man in the Premier League and starts up top, with Christopher Nkunku ready on the bench if needed.

Lee's team: Sanchez; Gusto, Adarabioyo, Colwill, Cucurella; Fernandez, Caicedo; Madueke, Palmer, Sancho; Jackson.
