New Chelsea signing Pedro makes his debut for Jose Mourinho's side in their Premier League clash with West Brom.
The 28-year-old became Chelsea's sixth recruit of the summer, joining Nathan, Radamel Falcao (loan), Asmir Begovic, Danilo Pantic and Baba Rahman.

West Brom team: Myhill; Dawson, McAuley, Olsson, Brunt; Yacob, McManaman, Morrison, Fletcher, McClean; Rondon.
Chelsea team: Courtois; Ivanovic, Zouma, Terry, Azpilicueta; Matic, Fabregas; Pedro, Willian, Hazard; Costa.
