Should Chelsea risk Eden Hazard and other top stars in Carabao Cup clash?

Chelsea take on Bournemouth on Wednesday night, and there are some big questions about what team Maurizio Sarri should pick.

The Italian coach has been picking a B team for fixtures in this competition so far, and in the Europa League group games too, but that’s been against weaker team.

We’re now against Premier League opposition, and just two wins away from the final. How strong will he go with this lineup?

The Telegraph report that he’s not certain whether to play Eden Hazard, who is the star man of this side and the most important asset to protect. If the Belgian features, we can expect most of the first XI to start.

We would back ourselves to play without him from the start and have a good chance against the Cherries, but we also don’t want to see us miss out on a great chance at winning a trophy.
