Chelsea team news: Conte receives massive injury boost ahead of Roma clash

Chelsea take on Serie A giants Roma in the UEFA Champions League tonight.

The clash takes place at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome while kick-off is scheduled for 19:45 (GMT).

Turkey international Cengiz Under has been included in Roma’s squad but is expected to start on the bench tonight.

Chelsea were held to a 3-3 draw at home against Roma a fortnight ago, in a game which they had led 2-0.

The Blues have since won three games in a row and come into tonight’s clash in a confident mood.

Chelsea team news:

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has little to worry about heading into tonight’s encounter. Star striker Alvaro Morata has returned to full fitness while the only absentee is Victor Moses.

The Nigeria international has been ruled out with a muscle injury he picked up earlier this month.

Conte received a massive boost on Monday morning when star midfielder N’golo Kante returned to full first-team training. The France international has missed Chelsea’s last five games with a hamstring injury
