Preview
With Alvaro Morata injured and Michy Batshuayi reportedly on his way to Borussia Dortmund, Antonio Conte will have to make do without an out-and-out striker for this match. Fortunately, they have other great attacking options, notably with Eden Hazard being likely expected to be used as a false no. 9 up front.
Thibaut Courtois is also expected to make a return from injury for this midweek clash after missing out earlier last week due to fitness problems.
