Chelsea defender Kurt Zouma started his first Premier League in more than a year after recovering from an injury he sustained in February last year.

Zouma played in the right-hand side of the back three with Cesar Azpilicueta playing as the right wing-back and Nemanja Matic dropping to the bench.

Conte hinted he started Zouma because of the loss of Victor Moses.

“I think I decided for this starting eleven because there is still the miss of Moses and we finished the game with some problems for some players,” Conte said.
