  • Olivier Giroud was selected ahead of Alvaro Morata to spearhead Chelsea’s attack against Southampton in Sunday’s FA Cup semi-final.

    The Frenchman scored twice in last weekend’s 3-2 Premier League win at St Mary’s and Antonio Conte made four changes from Thursday’s match at Burnley, with Eden Hazard, Cesc Fabregas, Willian and Willy Caballero coming in.

    Charlie Austin and Mario Lemina were the only Saints changes from their goalless draw at Leicester.
