Chelsea boss, Antonio Conte confirmed that Victor Moses has added to his Blues injury woes ahead of Wednesday's Champions League match with Roma.

The Nigerian limped off in the first half in the 2-1 defeat to Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon with a doubted hamstring injury.

Davide Zappacosta replaced the wingback moments later.

With N'Golo Kante and Danny Drinkwater also on the sidelines, Chelsea may be struggling with their squad depth over the next few weeks, and Moses will be another out for midweek.

According to London.football, Conte said: "I think, in this moment, for us it's a very difficult moment. When you start a game without Morata and without Kante, it's not simple.

He also admitted that losing Moses with an injury would be a difficult moment for his side.

"For sure Moses is out because he's injured. I don't know if his injury is serious or not. I hope not.

"Kante and Drinkwater are still out, and I hope to have Morata back for this game." He added.

Chelsea who have recorded a 100% win in the Champions League so far will host Roma on Wednesday night.
