Josh Acheampong
19-Year-Old
Chelsea
Premier
Starts again at right-back
Acheampong had three tackles (two won) and two clearances in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Manchester City.
ANALYSIS
Acheampong would once again receive the start at right-back, filling in for Malo Gusto as he covers for an injured Marc Cucurella (hamstring) at left-back. Acheampong is likely to return to the bench once Cucurella returns, only starting in six games this season between center-back and right-back, mainly a rotational option.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Not expected to leave Chelsea
Chelsea don't have any intention to part ways with Acheampong, according to The Express.
ANALYSIS
Acheampong hasn't played much this season, but Chelsea still rate the 19-year-old quite highly. Even though Acheampong will probably remain a depth piece at the back, the defender isn't expected to leave Stamford Bridge during the summer, either on loan or via a permanent transfer.
