tonight as he partners Nemanja Matic in midfield against Stoke City.
Mikel joined Chelsea in the summer of 2006. He has won every major
honour at club level with the Blues.
Thibaut Courtois returns in goal and Diego Costa, rested at Derby,
leads the attack.
Cesc Fabregas is expected to again play in a more forward midfield
position ahead of Nemanja Matic and John Mikel Obi, as in last
Tuesday's cup win. It is Mikel's 250th start for Chelsea.
Cesar Azpilicueta is the left-back with Gary Cahill returning as John
Terry's partner.
For Stoke City, there are two changes from their draw against Palace.
Marc Muniesa comes into defence in place of Marc Wilson and Marko
Arnautovic is preferred to Mame Diouf on the left wing.
