It’s seems that Chelsea can’t manage one season without a bit of drama between the players, as Diego Costa has apparently had a bust-up with Antonio Conte and is dropped for today’s game against Leicester, as Chelsea travel to King Power Stadium for the 1730 kick-off…
The Italian has decided to replace the Spaniard with Pedro, Eden Hazard and Willian leading the line, just like against Bournemouth.
Nemanja Matic starts in midfield with N’Golo Kante, who makes a big return to his former home stadium, facing his ex-side only for the second time in his career.
Here are the full team line-ups…
