Jose Mourinho starts John Terry in Chelsea's Premier League match against West Brom today, a week after substituting the veteran defender in the 3-0 defeat by Manchester City.
Instead, Mourinho has dropped 34-year-old Terry's usual centre-back partner Gary Cahill for today's match at the Hawthorns, bringing in Kurt Zouma.
Pedro, meanwhile, makes his debut for the Blues, starting on the right wing.
The Spaniard, who was heavily linked with Manchester United, made his £22m move from Barcelona last weekend.
"I am very happy to be here. I am very excited to start my adventure at Chelsea and I am here to keep winning titles," Pedro said.
"Thanks to the club and the supporters for giving me the opportunity to put the blue shirt on."
Teams:
Chelsea: Courtois; Ivanovic, Zouma, Terry, Azpilicueta; Matic, Fabregas; Pedro, Willian, Hazard; Diego Costa
Subs: Begovic, Cahill, Mikel, Loftus-Cheek, Traore, Remy, Falcao.
West Brom: Myhill, Dawson, McAuley, Olsson, Brunt, Morrison, Fletcher, Yacob, McClean, McManaman, Rondon
Subs: Rose, Chester, Lescott, Gnabry, Gardner, Anichebe, Lambert
