    Chelsea make six changes from the 2-0 win over Brentford on Saturday.

    Cole Palmer, Marc Cucurella and Robert Sanchez are among those left out, with Filip Jorgensen, Malo Gusto, Benoit Badiashile, Wesley Fofana and Liam Delap all coming in.

    Academy stars Landon Emenalo and Reggie Walsh feature on the substitutes’ bench.

    Subs: Sanchez, Acheampong, Chalobah, Cucurella, Emenalo, Andrey Santos, Walsh, George, Estevao, Gittens, Joao Pedro, Guiu

    Headline news from Pafos is that former Chelsea defender David Luiz is only fit enough for the bench.

    Another former Blue from Chelsea’s academy is Domingos Quina, but he is also only on the bench.

    This is Pafos’ first match against English opposition.

    Pafos XI: Gorter, Sema, Luckassen, Pileas, Bruno, Pepe, Sunjic, Jaja, Orsic, Dragomir, Anderson
