Conte: 'Morata fit for Huddersfield game'

Chelsea head coach Antonio Conte says that Alvaro Morata is available to feature in Wednesday's Premier League encounter with Huddersfield Town.

Forward Alvaro Morata has been declared fit for Chelsea's Premier League fixture with Huddersfield Town on Wednesday night.

Morata has struggled with a back problem since the start of 2018 and the Spaniard played no part of the club's fixture with Liverpool on Sunday afternoon.

However, head coach Antonio Conte suggested that the summer signing would be available for selection and at the Italian's pre-match press conference, it was confirmed that the 25-year-old would feature in the squad.

With Olivier Giroud scoring the only goal of the game in the 1-0 victory over the Merseyside giants, Morata could start the contest on the substitutes' bench.

Morata has scored 11 goals from 29 outings in the Premier League this season.
