Despite the absence of N’golo Kante from midfield, Chelsea has a good midfield setup with Jorginho and Mateo Kovacic heading the line.
Kovacic has a successful passing rate of 89% and successful dribbling rate of 88%. On top of that he has successul tackle rate is of 88%. Thus, making him a perfect option for Chelsea to lead the midfield battle.
On the other hand, Jorginho also boasts a successful pass rate of 84% in the last 5 Premier League games, and has been crucial in making interceptions, as he has made 10 successful interceptions in all league matches so far.
