UCL: Mendy could start vs AC Milan

Chelsea will return to action tonight in the Champions League when they face Italian side AC Milan.

The Blues head to the match after their 2-1 win over Crystal Palace last weekend.

Ahead of the match, Graham Potter discussed the potential roles for two of his goalkeepers, with Kepa Arrizabalaga having started in both matches so far since Potter took over as Chelsea head coach, but Edouard Mendy is in line for a possible return against AC Milan following injury.

‘If you look at what we’ve got over the next six weeks, it’s an incredible schedule so I’m in no rush to label anybody number one or two or anything like that,’ he said.

‘Firstly, I want to help Kepa enjoy his football and play at a really good level, which he did against Crystal Palace. And then I want to help Eddie get fit and ready to play, which he’s done really well so far. And then we’ve got two goalkeepers and in an ideal world you want football to decide. But we’ve got two ones that we really believe in and that’s a good situation for us.’
