Fixture: West Ham United vs Chelsea
Competition: EFL Cup
Kick-off: 19:45 (UK time)
Chelsea have officially confirmed their starting line-up and substitutes to lock horns with West Ham United at the London Stadium in an EFL Cup tie.
The Blues head into the contest against their London rivals in good heart after taking apart Manchester United at the weekend with a 4-0 win in the Premier League.
Antonio Conte is eyeing his side pushing deep into the EFL Cup as they do not have European football on the agenda this season. To get the job done against the Hammers, Conte picks John Terry in the heart of defence and he slots in alongside David Luiz and Garry Cahill as the back three. N'Golo Kante will be looking to control midfield, while Willian, Michy Batshuayi and Oscar aim to shoot down the Hammers.
On the bench Conte can call for Diego Costa if he needs to throw on another striker, while big guns Eden Hazard and Pedro Rodriguez are also options for the Italian to use if needed.

Begovic; David Luiz, Terry (c), Cahill; Azpilicueta, Kante, Chalobah, Aina; Willian, Batshuayi, Oscar
