“We are ready for a very, very tough game as always against Chelsea. We need to pick up from a good performance from last Sunday, middle of the week we changed a lot of players but achieved what we wanted, to get to the next round of the Carabao Cup.
“We have our plan. I prefer for us to express it on the field not talk about it now. The last few games we played against them our performances showed that we have things we can explore against them. We know that we are going to face a team with not just a lot if individual quality but also from last season look at how they have strengthened their front line, and I imagine more to come in the next few days. It is clear that we need to come here and match them and play to get the three points.
“We conceded a goal last week that should be disallowed but the boys reacted very well, we equalised and finished the game stronger than Manchester United. The last two games we showed that we are able to react when we concede goals.”
The draw took place on Thursday and there is now confirmation of when the eight league-phase games will be played. This is how they look for Chelsea:
