Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic: In danger of losing starting spot

Ivanovic started the first six league matches of the season, but he was displaced from the lineup by Marcos Alonso in Gameweek 7.

Analysis:

Ivanovic endured a poor run of form during September as the Blues conceded seven goals in three matches, and watched from the bench as a reshuffled back line in a 3-4-3 formation shut out Hull on Oct. 1. After seeing immediate results, it would not be surprising if manager Antonio Conte kept Alonso in the side Saturday versus Leicester.
