Conte should give these 3 Chelsea stars a chance against Middlesbrough

Premier League leaders Chelsea will begin their potentially title-winning week with a clash at home to struggling Middlesbrough on Monday (8pm kick-off).

Antonio Conte’s men saw second place Tottenham suffer a surprise 1-0 defeat at West Ham on Friday night to hand the ascendency right back to the Blues, who will know that two wins this week over first Boro and then West Brom on Friday will seal a fifth title in 12 years for the West London outfit.

Yet it won’t be easy against Steve Agnew’s men, who will need at least a draw at Stamford Bridge on Monday night to avoid joining Sunderland in the Championship next season.

The North East side saw Hull lose at home to David Moyes’ men on Saturday to give them a chance of survival, but with just two games to go after Monday’s, they are seriously up against it in their quest to retain their top-flight status for next season.

Nonetheless, Conte’s Chelsea will be favourites to get the three points on Monday, but with a game against Tony Pulis’ Baggies to come on Friday, the Italian may make a few changes to his starting line-up.

Thus, here are THREE Chelsea stars who deserve a chance against Middlesbrough on Monday…
