You can't unless your opponents are sound asleep. There is no way to avoid losing 2 diamonds and 1 club.

Pretend you don't see the EW hands.

The diamond spots are poor, and you have to lose the CA, so I think the correct play is to play for KQ doubleton of diamonds. I think the chances are less than 7%.

We can also play East with KT or QT doublten.
Lead small ♦ toward South, cover T with J or play J from dummy next round to pin East's 10. If no honor appeared on East's first ♦, we return to play KQ on West.

At the table I would try and slip past the ace of clubs at trick 2.
