Chelsea defender Ben Chilwell is confident he WILL be fit for Champions League clash against Sevilla this week after the left-back suffered a knock to his ankle in draw with Tottenham

Ben Chilwell says he is optimistic he will be fit for Chelsea's Champions League game against Sevilla this week despite picking up a knock in Sunday's 0-0 draw against Tottenham.

The left-back suffered an ankle issue during the top of the table clash against Jose Mourinho's men but was able to continue despite concern that he may have to be substituted, and has brushed off concerns he could be set for a spell out.

It will provide a huge boost to Blues boss Frank Lampard, whose side travel to Seville on Wednesday hoping to continue their excellent European form, with the team vying for top spot in Group E with the LaLiga outfit.
