Leaders Chelsea face off against rivals West Ham United in Monday's Premier League clash at the London Stadium.
The Blues are eight points ahead of second-placed Tottenham Hotspur, and they could extend this lead further, should Spurs fall short against Everton on Sunday.
Formation: 3-4-3
Lineup:
Belgian shot-stopper Thibaut Courtois will retain his spot as ever, The keeper has been ever-present for the Blues this season.
David Luiz has played through a minor knee problem since December. In spite of this, he is predicted to start in the heart of a three-man defence which includes Cesar Azplicueta and Gary Cahill.
Victor Moses and Marcos Alonso have served the right wing-back and left wing-back positions with perfection in recent weeks. The former will be buoyed with his extension earlier in the month.
Cesc Fabregas notched a goal and assist in his 300th EPL appearance - the first Spaniard to do so. He could be tipped to retain his spot alongside N'Golo Kante in the centre of the park.
In his press conference, pre-match, Conte confirmed that Eden Hazard received a 'kick in training', which could rule him out against the Hammers.
His absence could see Willian deployed on the right wing with the ever-efficient Pedro on the left while Diego Costa will take up his usual centre-forward position.
