Chelsea vs Atalanta Confirmed Lineups for December 9

These are the Chelsea vs Atalanta confirmed lineups for their UEFA Champions League tie. This is a clash in the League Phase of the tournament with both sides entering on 10 points with five points separating first from tenth. It is key to finish in the top eight as it will avoid the play-off stage and two high-intensity matches that will add to an already tough schedule for any club. A win will be the only thing on the mind for both managers, particularly as the Blues have winnable matches coming up.
