Conte should give these 3 Chelsea players a chance against Sunderland

Michy Batshuayi

As much as Diego Costa is the in-form forward in the Premier League, this is the first time Chelsea have faced three Premier League games in seven days this season, and it remains to be seen whether the Spaniard can play all three to the same high level we’ve seen thus far.

So, Conte may draft Michy Batshuayi in for his first league start of the season, and you sense that, if he doesn’t get a chance at some stage this week, he’s going to be waiting a while.

The Belgian international netted off the bench against Watford back in August, and then scored twice against Bristol Rovers in the League Cup, but has been used as a substitute throughout the season, such is Costa’s great form.

He may get a chance on Wednesday though.
