- Chelsea stars prank themselves in training ahead of their Champions League clash against AS Roma
- Spanish hitman Alvaro Morata is back in training after being sidelined for two weeks
- The Premier League Champions have been in good form in the Champions League and will be hoping it continues against Roma
Chelsea prepare ahead of their Champions League clash against Italian outfit AS Roma at Stamford Bridge, on Wednesday night, October 18.
The Premier League champions have been in fine form in this season's Champions League so far, beating Azerbaijan champions Qarabag 6-0.
They also put in a brilliant display away to Atletico Madrid which saw a last minute Michy Batshuayi goal give them a 2-1 victory at the Wanda Metropolitano.

Same can not be said about their Premier League form, the Blues have lost three out of their first eight fixtures in the league.
They have been a shadow of their last season form that saw them win the league with games to spare.
The game against Roma is an opportunity for the Stamford Bridge outfit to redeem themselves from the disgraceful defeat to Premier League weeping boys Crystal Palace, on Saturday, October 14.
Palace had not scored a Premier League goal this season nor gotten any point, but on Saturday against all odds they got two goals and all three points against the champions.
Chelsea manager Antonio Conte will be happy to see star striker Alvaro Morata back in training after being sidelined for two weeks due to injury he sustained against Manchester City two weeks ago.
The Spaniard seems to be back and ready to go as he was having fun at Chelsea's Cobham training ground while he and Marcos Alonso were teasing team mate Cesc Fabregas.
