Lampard is without the services of Hakim Ziyech and Christian Pulisic, however, with both players recovering from injuries.

Who is the referee and what colours will the teams be playing in?

Lee Mason will take charge of tonight’s match, supported by Mark Scholes and Timothy Wood as assistant referees. Andre Marriner will serve as the fourth official.

We’ll line up in our usual white-navy-white home strip, with our goalkeeper in all green.

Chelsea will be in all blue with their goalkeeper in orange.
