[Teams] AS Roma vs Chelsea: Confirmed Line-Ups From The Stadio Olimpico

Chelsea can put themselves on the verge of qualification to the knockout stages of the Champions League with a win over AS Roma this evening.

Antonio Conte has decided not to risk N’Golo Kante as the French international doesn’t make the squad despite returning to training from a hamstring injury.

Antonio Rudiger keeps his place in defence while Gary Cahill gets a recall alongside David Luiz with Cesar Azpilicueta moving out to the right wing-back position.

Cesc Fabregas continues alongside Tiemoue Bakayoko in midfield with Pedro and Eden Hazard once again supporting Alvaro Morata up front. Michy Batshuayi and Willian must therefore make do with a place on the bench.

Here are the confirmed line-ups:

Roma

Alisson; Florenzi, Fazio, Jesus, Kolarov; Nainggolan, De Rossi, Strootman; El Shaarawy, Dzeko, Perotti.

Subs: Skorupski, Moreno, Manolas, Gerson, Gonalons, Pellegrini, Cengiz.

Chelsea

Courtois; David Luiz, Rüdiger, Cahill; Azpilicueta, Fàbregas, Bakayoko, Marcos Alonso; Pedro, Morata, Hazard.

Subs: Caballero, Drinkwater, Kenedy, Zappacosta, Willian, Batshuayi, Christensen
