Chelsea have announced their line-up to face Hull City. Antonio Conte has made two changes in the squad. Cesc Fabregas and Branislav Ivanovic make way for Victor Moses and Marcos Alonso.
Chelsea are winless in their last two games and the pressure is on Conte to turn around the wretched run. The changes were perhaps necessary considering how bad the defending was. Alonso is expected to play on the left, which will mean that Azpilicueta will take over from Ivanovic on the right.
Hull themselves have been in a bad run after a brilliant start to the season saw them beat defending champions Leicester City. Chelsea will be firm favourites for the game despite their recent run and anything apart from a win will be a failure from the game. They will have chances though, considering the fact that Alonso hasn’t been involved too many times in the first team. Robert Snodgrass will provide a stern test for the Spaniard.
Team to face Hull City: Courtois, Azpilicueta, Alonso, Cahill (c), David Luiz, Kante, Matic, Moses, Willian, Hazard, Diego Costa. #CFC
