Antonio Conte has made a bold move by opting to rest Eden Hazard as Chelsea host Swansea City at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday.

It will be interesting to see how Chelsea fans react to Conte’s decision to drop Hazard to the bench, albeit to give the Belgian some much needed rest ahead of an important and packed December.

Also missing out is Danny Drinkwater, who drops to the bench, with Cesc Fabregas thrust into the starting lineup. Victor Moses makes the bench and could come on sometime during the match to gain some precious game time to aid his return to full fitness.
