Chelsea have been plagued with injuries since the start of the season and are without five players for this match, as confirmed by Lampard. Centre-back duo of Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger will miss out with the latter not match fitn yet. Ross Barkley remains sidelined after being substituted in the first half in the 1-0 win against Newcastle.

Ruben Loftus Cheek is still on the road to recovery from the injury suffered last season and won't feature at least for another month. N'golo Kanťe will also miss the match as Frank Lampard says he will not rush him into the squad. Chelsea will more or less use the same team that won against Ajax in Amsterdam.

After his impressive performances from the bench in the last two games, Christian Pulisic is pleading his cause to get a first start in the league. Michy Batshuayi has also shone from the bench, giving real competition to Tammy Abraham. Lampard might also shift to three at the back, knowing well that Sean Dyche will play with two strikers upfront.
