Mikel has been great since the return of Hiddink, and with Matic being in woeful form this season, I can see John Obi starting against Watford. Fabregas seems to have a bit of form in recent weeks, with his combination with Costa looking to gain some momentum. With Ramires gone last week we expect Loftus-Cheek to start who has held his own this season producing consistently on the pitch.

Willian has been Chelsea’s biggest threat on the attack this season and if he is fit after recovering from a minor foot injury then there is no reason why he won’t start. Eden Hazard scored his first goal of the season, which would have lifted a lot of pressure from his shoulders, although it was from a penalty. Hiddink will be praying that his superstar manages to find some form quickly, which would go a long way in lifting Chelsea up the table.

Striker: Diego Costa

The energetic striker is on some good form of late, having scored 6 goals in his last 7 matches. With both Remy and Falcao suffering from injury and bad form, Costa has a clear run in the team and if he stays fit there is very little chance of someone else taking over his position up front.
