Morata returns to Chelsea’s eleven; Dzeko and Perotti lead Roma’s attack

Álvaro Morata returns this Wednesday, almost three weeks after his hamstring injury, to Chelsea’s starting eleven, which faces Roma on the third day of the Champions League, which will start with Edin Dzeko, Diego Perotti and Gerson at the tip of the attack.The Spanish international, the most expensive signing in the history of the ‘Blues’, withdrew injured on September 30 in a Premier League match against Manchester City and missed Chelsea’s last match and the two matches of the Spanish team against Albania and Israel.
Faced with the known casualties of N’Golo Kanté and Victor Moses -both injured, Antonio Conte opted for David Luiz in midfield and Davide Zappacosta in the right lane. The young Andreas Christensen also returns to the ‘eleven’.
Chelsea’s starting ’11’ tonight is as follows (3-5-2): Courtois; Azpilicueta, Christensen, Cahill; David Luiz, Zappacosta, Bakayoko, Fabregas, Alonso; Hazard and Morata.
For their part, Roma, second in Group C, with four points, will play at Stamford Bridge with Alisson; Peres, Fazio, Jesus, Kolarov; Nainggolan, Gonalons Strootman; Gerson, Perotti and Dzeko.
