David Luiz could make his first appearance for Chelsea since his Deadline Day transfer from Paris Saint-Germain in their Super Sunday clash at Swansea, live on Sky Sports 1 HD from 3.30pm.
Luiz completed a £34m move back to Stamford Bridge on August 31 and is available for the Premier League clash at the Liberty Stadium.
The Brazilian's return opens up the option for Antonio Conte to play three at the back, a tactic he favoured during his managerial spells in Italy.
"I think David Luiz is a centre-back, he's played a lot of games in that position," Conte told Chelsea TV.
"I know sometimes he's played as a central midfielder but in my mind the idea is to utilise him in the right position which, for me, is centre-back.
Meanwhile, Swansea hope record signing Borja Baston will feature for the first time, though the striker has struggled with a thigh injury since his £15.5m move from Atletico Madrid.
