Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that he expects Ross Turnbull to face Inter Milan on Tuesday.

The Blues face their former boss Jose Mourinho for the second leg of the last 16 clash.

And Chelsea are likely to get into the match with Turnbull in goal, as Petr Cech and Hilario are both injured.

Turnbull, who joined Chelsea in the summer on a free transfer from Middlesbrough, made his debut in Saturday's win over West Ham and was largely untested.

Now Ancelotti says he has no qualms about fielding Turnbull on Tuesday.

"Ross Turnbull deserved to play in this game because he has trained well and proved his quality," said Ancelotti.

"He was not involved in a lot of the game but he did make a good save in the last minute of the match.

"He played with confidence and we have confidence in him. I think he will play in the Champions League on Tuesday."
