Premier League 2019-20: Norwich City Predicted Lineup v Chelsea, injury news, suspension list and more

Teemu Pukki has been on fire for the Canaries so far

Chelsea travel to Carrow Road later today as they face-off against a tricky Norwich City side in the second game of Match day 3 of the Premier League.

The visitors have blown hot and cold so far this season under the management of Frank Lampard. The Blues, in both their matches, have shown glimpses of the quality present in the team but failed to deliver it consistently for 90 minutes. Lampard, against a newly promoted side, will be desperate to register his first competitive win as Chelsea manager.

The hosts meanwhile, are on a high after a thumping 3-1 victory over Newcastle United at home last week. Canaries striker Teemu Pukki has taken the Premier League by storm, having already mustered four goals from the opening two matches.

Daniel Farke and his men will be hoping to make it two wins on the stretch against a Chelsea side who are yet to find their feet.
