Ghana defender Baba Rahman has been named on the Chelsea bench for tonight’s Champions League last 16-second tie at home against PSG.

With Jerry Terry, still recovering from a hamstring problem and not yet ready to join the fray, it was thought Rahman would start the match.

But manager Guus Hiddink has opted for Brazilian Kennedy as left back.

Branislav Ivanovic is likely to deputise in the absence of Terry to partner Gary Cahill and Cesar Azpilicueta moving to replace Ivanovic at right-back.

Chelsea lost the first leg 2-1 and hold the advantage to reach the quarter-final stage.
