The Blues travel to Paris for the first leg of their Champions League last 16 tie against the holders, in what is sure to be a mouth watering contest.
It’s a repeat of last summer’s Club World Cup final, but a lot has changed since then, and it’ll be fascinating to see how the two sides line-up.
The Blues have virtually a fully fit squad to pick from with the only absentees Levi Colwill, Estevao and Jamie Gittens.
There are some decisions Rosenior needs to make, but arguably the biggest is who will start in goal out of Robert Sanchez and Filip Jorgensen.
Sanchez was surprisingly dropped for the win against Aston Villa, with Jorgensen handed a rare start, but the Dane was left out of the squad for the FA Cup tie with Wrexham.
Rosenior has stated he doesn’t work with a number one keeper and picks based on the opposition, which seems a risky strategy.
He confirmed Sanchez had responded well to being dropped, but speaking ahead of Wednesday’s game he refused to confirm who would start in goal.
“No, of course not [prepared to give clues],” he told his pre-match press conference.
“Every decision is a difficult decision. That’s the job I’m here to do. For me, the goalkeeper position is no different to the outfield position and you will see the decision I make when the team sheets come out.”
With Jorgensen and Sanchez set to battle it out for the remainder of the season, the Blues also have Mike Penders on their books.

The 20-year-old is currently impressing on loan at Strasbourg, and reports have suggested Penders is the frontrunner to be number one next season.
Chelsea believe Penders is special, but they face a big decision in the summer with their goalkeepers, and it’s one they simply have to get right.
