Anticipated Chelsea Lineup for Barcelona: To be strong (343) or not to be striking (352), that is the issue
Anticipated Chelsea Lineup for Barcelona: To be strong (343) or not to be striking (352), that is the issue
Antonio Conte says he had a restless night Friday, hurling and turning as he attempted to make sense of who to play against Barcelona in the greatest match of this season. How about we plunge into the issues he's managing before we try naming the starters.
In resistance, there's an inquiry regarding whether Antonio Rudiger may be favored over the less deft and to some degree more regrettable passer — yet more experienced — Gary Cahill. David Luiz is out. At wingback, Marcos Alonso prepared on Monday out of the blue in the wake of missing three matches, so he's conceivably not yet completely fit. We realize that Conte likes to move players back in. We likewise know he'll soften that individual control up instance of crisis, as he did with Tiémoué Bakayoko against Tottenham toward the beginning of the season, or with Olivier Giroud not more than a day or two ago.
In midfield there's a touch of damage emergency. Bakayoko is out with a sickness nobody has yet clarified. Barkley prepared Monday out of the blue after another hamstring misfortune, likewise missing three matches. Ethan Ampadu can't be a crisis fill-in on the grounds that guidelines (he's not qualified for the Champions League squad per UEFA directions — he's not been at the club for the required two years to get the free U18s pass).
At focus forward Alvaro Morata is fit again and falling off of a 20-minute stretch against Hull City. However, Olivier Giroud has been playing admirably.
In Monday's question and answer session, Conte said he needed to play the players in the best frame. To be honest, that sounds like Giroud and Willian and Hazard in advance to me. Be that as it may, with the need to stuff bodies into the midfield so Chelsea aren't dwarfed, three assailants appear like an extravagance Conte can't bear. Willian additionally played the full diversion on Friday, which would demonstrate a non-beginning part for him on Tuesday.
In this way, with the greater part of that thought about, here's a speculate the eleven men who will record out of the passage and into the discord that ought to be Stamford Bridge under the floodlights.
3-5-2
Courtois | Cahill, Christensen, Azpilicueta | Alonso, Drinkwater, Kante, Fabregas, Moses | Hazard, Morata
The WAGNH people group's favored lineup is the more daring 3-4-3 proposed above — which surely bodes well regarding structure — yet with Morata getting approval over Giroud (42%) — which positively does not. How intense will Conte go? We don't need to hold up too long to discover...
3-4-3 (53%):
Courtois (94%) | Rudiger (73%), Christensen (95%), Azpilicueta (98%) | Alonso (91%), Kante (99%), Fabregas (87%), Moses (79%) | Hazard (99%), Morata (63%), Willian (66%)
