Chelsea will take on League one side Scunthorpe this afternoon in the FA Cup third round. The Blues will be expected to field-in a strong squad that can only guaranty three maximum points.

This is due to the fact that the FA Cup is the only domestic  trophy they can actually strives to win this season, having being knocked-out of the Capital One Cup and sitting on 14th position on the EPL log with 19 points behind league leader Arsenal.

However, Hiddink will be expected to have a blend of the highly experienced players and the young talents in the starting line up.

Young England international striker Patrick Bamford will be expected to lead the attack while Diego Costa starts from the bench.

Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Baba Rahman will be expected in the starting line-up ahead of Cesc Fabregas and Branislav Ivanovic respectively.
