How the Blues will line up to take on the Shrews on Tuesday night.
Just 48 hours after being held to a draw with Manchester United, Jose Mourinho’s men are gearing up for another game. However, this one has a slightly different flavour to it as they will travel to Shropshire to take on League Two side Shrewsbury. It’s likely that there will be wholesale changes as Mourinho will not want to overburden his squad, and a few of the side’s fringe players will get their chance of a run out.

GK: Petr Cech
The Czech stopper will ensure that the Blues are still in safe hands as he deputises for Thibaut Courtois.

Ivanovic will likely retain his place in the squad to give the back line a sense of cohesion.
CB: Kurt Zouma
‘Happy’ will come in for John Terry to add some braun to the defence.
CB: Gary Cahill
Makeshift skipper for the night, like Ivanovic he will be keeping the defence flowing.
