A new era will get underway at Chelsea in the summer when Xabi Alonso begins life at Stamford Bridge. However, before then, the Blues will be aiming to snap a seven-game winless run and enhance their outside chance of finishing in a European spot.

The trends support their chances, as Chelsea have avoided defeat in their final home match of the season in each of the last 23 campaigns. However, they have lost their last four at Stamford Bridge, and are currently enduring their longest winless run in the EPL since February 1995.

Likely Line-Up:

(4-2-3-1): Sanchez (GK); James, Fofana, Colwill, Hato; Caicedo, Lavia; Palmer, Fernandez, Garnacho; Delap

Likely Line-Up:

(4-2-3-1): Kinsky (GK); Porro, Danso, van de Ven, Spence; Gallagher, Bentancur; Tel, Maddison, Muani; Richarlison
