Chelsea head coach Antonio Conte has confirmed that he will rotate his squad for the EFL Cup fixture with Everton.

In recent weeks, the Blues have struggled with injuries during a hectic schedule, and Conte has acknowledged that he intends to use both Charly Musonda and Kenedy in Wednesday's game at Stamford Bridge.

Musonda has made four appearances in all competitions this season, while Kenedy's only outing came in last month's fixture with Nottingham Forest.

The 48-year-old is quoted by the London Evening Standard as saying: "I think this could be a good opportunity to give a chance to the young players like Charly Musonda, also Kenedy, young players who I think deserve the chance.

"They are working very hard, they are improving and we can see the improvement against Everton which is a tough game. It is important for me, important for the club. We will do this."

Willy Caballero, Jake Clarke-Salter, Ethan Ampadu and Dujon Sterling are also likely to feature in the squad for the game in West London.
