Frank Lampard has made a number of changes from the side that drew 2-2 with Arsenal on Tuesday night with Willy Caballero coming in for the rested Kepa in goal. Marcos Alonso comes in for Emerson at left-back while Kurt Zouma and Fikayo Tamori also get recalls to the back four.

Andreas Christensen is named on the bench but Antonio Rudiger is given the afternoon off. Jorginho and N’Golo Kante are also not included in the matchday squad as Ross Barkley and Mason Mount join Mateo Kovacic in midfield.
