Chelsea vs Roma: Frank Lampard analyses Antonio Conte's Champions League team selection

Chelsea have Alvaro Morata back fit after he injured his hamstring in the 1-0 defeat to Manchester City two-and-a-half weeks ago.

Eden Hazard will play just behind the Spaniard, with the duo starring in the Blues’ last Champions League tie, the 2-1 win over Atletico Madrid.

David Luiz will start the game in midfield, with N’Golo Kante still struggling with his hamstring problem.

Lampard likes the look of his former side tonight.

“Great news to have Morata fit,” Lampard said on BT Sport.

“Hamstrings you expect to out for around a month, he’s made it in two or three weeks.

“I think that combination we saw at Atletico is so important for Chelsea.

“I think if they’re going to do anything this year, those two up front have to continue with that form.

“David Luiz, he’s been brought into midfield to thicken up and give another body.

“In European football it’s such a hard part of the pitch to dominate.

“He will give them more strength in there.”

Victory tonight would give Chelsea their third Champions League win of the season out of three.
