Chelsea wrap up the 2017/18 Premier League season with a trip north to face Newcastle United on Sunday.
The Blues go into the match on the back of a disappointing 1-1 draw with Huddersfield Town during the week, as Antonio Conte’s men were unable to break down the resolute Terriers and score a winner.
Chelsea must win if they are to have a chance of making the top-four, and must also hope that Liverpool fall at the hands of Brighton given the Reds’ superior goal difference.
All hope of Champions League qualification would not be lost should the Blues finish fifth, as they would qualify should Liverpool go on to beat Real Madrid later this month.
This weekend’s match could well be Conte’s last in charge of the club, with the Italian continually being linked with an early Stamford Bridge exit with one year of his contract remaining.
As for their opponents, Newcastle are firmly stuck in mid-table and are one of four clubs on 41 points, and can only finish as high as 10th this campaign.
Without further ado, here are the eleven players we think Antonio Conte will send out to start the match at St. James’ Park…
