After back to back defeats, Lampard’s men need to step up their game if they want to be a part of the title charge.

With teams like Manchester United and Leicester City racing in front of them, this game could not be any more crucial and Lampard knows it.

It’s of massive importance. It’s going to be a big test of the players, a test of myself, because it’s my job first to pick the players up,”

“What I saw of the two games, against Everton and Wolves, it was things we were doing really well before, against Leeds particularly, and everyone says we are in great form and wants to talk us up, and we just dropped a level for two games and got punished,” he added.

At the moment Chelsea have injuries stacked up against their favour with Reece James out with a knee problem. Hakim Ziyech took is set to miss out after a hamstring injury.
