Storylines
Chelsea: The international break came at a good time for the Blues as they continue to get players back to 100 percent fitness. This match could end up marking the club debut of former Ajax star Hakim Ziyech as well, after he returned from injury and played in Morocco's 3-1 win over Senegal last week. It's unclear if he will start, and Frank Lampard has always been overly cautious with returning players, but he is a star that can make all the difference in a game like this.
Sevilla: The squad isn't as strong as last season, but there are reasons to be excited for their fans. The club took Bayern Munich to the brink of defeat in the UEFA Super Cup, and they follow Julen Lopetegui's system to a tee. Ivan Rakitic is back to command the middle in place of the departed Ever Banega, and if they can control the tempo and defend well on the wings, they will be in this towards the end.
Prediction
Timo Werner scores and sets up another as the Blues win. Pick: Chelsea 2, Sevilla 1
