Michy Batshuayi will be making his third start for Chelsea tonight as Antonio Conte looks to give the Belgian a chance to prove himself, dropping goal-machine Diego Costa to the bench to take some rest ahead of Sunday’s clash against Southampton.
Youngsters Nathaniel Chalobah and Ola Aina are also named in the starting line-up, while Asmir Begovic starts between the sticks ahead of Thibaut Courtois, and John Terry returns from his injury.
But, without further a due, here are the full team line-ups:
Chelsea:
Team to face West Ham: Begovic; David Luiz, Terry (c), Cahill; Azpilicueta, Kante, Chalobah, Aina; Willian, Batshuayi, Oscar. #CFC
