Roberto Di Matteo reveals that he plans to make changes for Chelsea's Premier League match with Arsenal.

Chelsea interim manager Roberto Di Matteo has revealed that he is considering rotating his squad for this weekend's clash with Arsenal.

The Blues meet their London rivals on Saturday just days before their Champions League semi-final second leg against Barcelona at the Nou Camp.

"We will have to assess the players but there is a good chance some fresh ones will come in," said Di Matteo.

"Also, they deserve to be in the team as well. I left a few players out against Barcelona because I have to make decisions.

"We will see about Saturday but I have it in mind to give one or two a start."

This means Fernando Torres may be handed a start up front in place of Didier Drogba while there could be recalls for Daniel Sturridge and Michael Essien.
