It means manager Jose Mourinho has a chance to rest some of his usual first team players and give the youth a chance.
Here is how fanatix thinks the Blues will lineup at Stamford Bridge.
GK – Petr Cech
It’s likely to be a third start in the competition for Cech as Mourinho will use it as an opportunity to give the goalkeeper some game time and Thibaut Courtois a rest.
RB – Cesar Azpilicueta
With Branislav Ivanovic having been used extensively this season already we think the 30-year-old could also sit out and Azpilicueta will therefore return to right-back.
CB – Gary Cahill
Is really growing into the role of John Terry’s successor and could even be given the armband against Sporting ahead of Cech.
CB – Kurt Zouma
Mourinho has confirmed Terry will be rested and it will therefore be another chance for this young centre-back to try and impress.
LB – Filipe Luis
Since a £15.8m move from Atletico Madrid over the summer this Brazilian has found first team opportunities hard to come by and this be a rare chance for the left-back.
