Ancelotti will be looking to guide his team back to winning ways with a near full strength eleven at his disposal. Richarlison remains out due to suspension but James Rodriguez, Seamus Coleman are expected to return to the starting lineup. Lucas Digne has also served his one match suspension and is available for selection.
