Brendan Rodgers believes that his Swansea City side will "not feel inferior" on his return to Stamford Bridge.

Swansea City manager Brendan Rodgers has insisted that his players will "not feel inferior" to Chelsea this weekend.

The game will mark his return to a club whose reserve team he once managed.

The Swans boss has accepted that Chelsea have "world class players", but believes that his side will compete during his Stamford Bridge reunion.

"[Chelsea] are a fantastic club and one of the leaders in European football," Rodgers told Sky Sports News.

"But we're going to enjoy it because our confidence is very high.

"We understand that they have world class players but we will not feel inferior to them."

Rodgers's side recorded their first victory since promotion to the Premier League on Saturday, defeating West Bromwich Albion 3-0 at the Liberty Stadium.
