Chelsea play west London rivals Brentford in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Sunday lunchtime and we have the team news.

The Blues continue the defence of their trophy at Griffin Park and will be clear favourites to progress against the League 1 side today.

Interim boss Rafa Benitez has handed a start to captain John Terry and he plays alongside Gary Cahill at the back. Fernando Torres is preferred to Demba Ba up top while Marko Marin also gets a rare start in midfield.

Ross Turnbull starts in goal while Ryan Bertrand also gets a start. Here are the confirmed line-ups for the game:

Brentford Team

Best of luck for the blues. But why does Benitez wants chelsea stay? Does he wants to reduce chelsea to point of no return? He has failed woefully and still want to carry on! Hope Abramovich will save Bridge of booing by sending him back to whence he came
