Premier League leaders Chelsea will face relegation threatened Middlesbrough on Monday night and the Blues should be considered favorites to earn all three points.
Conte’s men fought hard to earn all three points against the Toffees in their last league game. On the other hand, Middlesbrough earned a point vs the Sky Blues last weekend.
Boro are currently 19th in the table, 6 points behind 17th placed Hull City and they are perhaps destined to go down.
As far as Chelsea’s team news is concerned, David Luiz is the only player with an injury concern (Groin – PhysioRoom) but he is expected to be fit to face Middlesbrough.
The Italian boss does not really need to make any change in his starting XI that played vs Everton at the weekend. However, we can expect Cesc Fabregas to return to the lineup.
The former Arsenal star has provided 2 assists in his last 85 minutes for the Blues and deserves to start. He may replace Matic and partner Kante in the midfield.
