Chelsea face Patrick Vieira's Crystal Palace in today's afternoon kick-off at Selhurst Park, with the Blues attempting to bridge the mammoth sixteen point gap that currently stands between themselves and Pep Guardiola's Manchester City.
Despite triumph in the FIFA Club World Cup last week in Abu Dhabi against Palmeiras, the west Londoners' Premier League form has been far from ideal since the turn of the new year.
In their last five league encounters, Chelsea have only managed one victory, which was against Antonio Conte's Tottenham at Stamford Bridge, so manager Thomas Tuchel will be hoping that his club can develop domestic consistency going into the business end of the season.
The German has an interesting dilemma in terms of who to choose within the engine room of the team, as Ruben Loftus Cheek, N'golo Kante, Mateo Kovacic and Jorginho are all available for selection.
If Instagram activity is anything to go by, then the latter may have dropped a major hint that he could be handed a start in today's Premier League encounter against the Eagles.
Jorginho posted on his Instagram story a match graphic of himself, headlined with the caption 'Crystal Palace vs Chelsea'.
The Italian is a divided figure amongst the Chelsea fan base, with some arguing that he is a key cog in the Blues' build-up, offering control in possession whilst others believe that a more mobile midfielder who can provide a significant influence both with and without the ball is required in the summer to replace him.
From Tuchel's perspective, the former PSG coach clearly sees him as a very important member of the first team, as Jorginho so far this season has started seventeen Premier League games out of a possible twenty-four fixtures so it certainly wouldn't be a surprise to see him heavily involved today.
