Chelsea vs. Bristol Rovers – Team News

As Chelsea face Bristol Rovers in the first match of their EFL Cup campaign, Antonio Conte is ready to field a very rotated starting eleven, as key players like Eden Hazard and Diego Costa are starting the game from the bench.

On the other hand, youngsters Ola Aina and Ruben Loftus-Cheek have made it to the opening game plan, as the Italian wants to give a chance for them in a match against a weaker side than on usual standards.

Here are the confirmed line-ups:

Chelsea XI: Begovic, Aina, Cahill, Ivanovic (c), Azpilicueta, Pedro, Fabregas, Matic, Moses, Loftus-Cheek, Batshuayi.

Subs: Courtois, Terry, Chalobah, Oscar, Hazard, Solanke, Diego Costa.
