The striker will not feature against Huddersfield as he is tired and has a back niggle

Chelsea FC face Huddersfield on Tuesday night in their 17th Premier League game, but will be without striker Alvaro Morata. Antonio Conte says he has a back niggle and is tired. 

"We play a game every three days and our squad is not that big, it's a difficult situation but we have to go through it," said Conte. "Some players are tired but that's normal considering we've been playing since the summer and went on a tour in China and Singapore.

"Morata is out of the squad becuase he's tired and has a problem with his back."
