Antonio Conte smartly refused to rush Hazard back into action following his ankle injury suffered in the summer, but it’s now time for the Belgian to return to top form. He completed the full 90 minutes in the defeat to Palace on Saturday, so is approaching full fitness and should create plenty of problems for Peres. The right-back enjoys pushing forward and could leave space for Hazard to take advantage of.
Dzeko has scored eight goals in all competitions for Roma already this season and is sure to give David Luiz a tough time of it. With the Brazil centre back having so far failed to live up to the high standards he set last term, the striker is expected to trouble the Chelsea defence and consequently Thibaut Courtois.
