Gary Cahill and Tiemoue Bakayoko both were rested on the weekend, they will be back to starting lineup.
Davide Zappacosta is also likely to start on the right wing-back.
Willian and Pedro both are eyeing for a start, but boss Antonio Conte may be sticking with the same 3-5-1-1 formation.
Atletico Madrid
Stefan Savic is back from suspension, he missed out last game.
Juanfran is out with an injury, which means Thomas Partey could get a starting spot at the right-back.
Ángel Correa and Kevin Gameiro both are eyeing to get a starting spot at the striking role.
