Chelsea Under-21 manager Dermot Drummy has been in touch and advised that he will be resting a few of his more experienced players on Tuesday evening. However, he will be fielding two players with more than 150 senior Chelsea appearances between them in the form of Jody Morris and Jon Harley.

Drummy's charges have a big derby against Tottenham Hotspur next Friday evening in their opening league encounter, so he understandably wants to ensure his players are ready to go. Morris and Harley are both without clubs at the moment, but are training with Drummy and the under-21s and they are both expected to be in the starting XI.

Admission to the game is £10 for adults, £5 for senior citizens and students and free for under-16s. Tickets are not on sale in advance and will be available through the turnstiles on the night.
