What is the team news?
Chelsea are closing in on a club-record £98million transfer to bring Romelu Lukaku back to to Stamford Bridge.
If he is registered in time, Lukaku could be supported by Hakim Ziyech and Kai Havertz in attack in Northern Ireland.
Callum Hudson-Odoi and Marcos Alonso are expected to begin as the wing-backs with Mateo Kovacic and N’Golo Kante in the middle of the park.
A back three of Cesar Azpilicueta, Kurt Zouma and Antonio Rudiger may well protect Edouard Mendy.
