Team News

Chelsea – Thibaut Courtois pulled out of a television interview at the weekend after contracting an illness and his availability for Saturday’s clash with Swansea remains in doubt. Other than that Antonio Conte has a full squad to pick from this weekend and has no reason to make any real changes.

David Luiz, Nemanja Matic and Marcos Alonso were among the players to be given a rest last weekend and they will all be recalled here.

Swansea – Swansea had the weekend off and will be well rested for the trip to London, although they didn’t manage to recover any of their injured quartet.

Nathan Dyer was ruled out for the rest of the season after their 2-0 win over Leicester last time out and this could mean Luciano Narsingh finally makes his full debut for Swansea.
