What was the team news?

N’Golo Kante could return for Chelsea after missing their last two games due to suspension and a hamstring injury. Kepa Arrizabalaga is set to start in goal, while Billy Gilmour and Tino Anjorin will be hoping to get some time on the pitch as well.

Luton will be without Martin Cranie and Eunan O’Kane due to injury. This means that Harry Cornick, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Glen Rea are all in line to start.

Confirmed line-ups

Chelsea: Kepa, James, Zouma, Christensen, Emerson, Mount, Gilmour, Havertz, Abraham, Werner, Ziyech

Luton: Sluga, Cornick, Bradley, Rea, Tunnicliffe, Lockyer, Dewsbury-Hall, Naismith, Bree, Clark, Mpanzu

Odds

Chelsea: 1/7

Draw: 15/2

Luton: 16/1

Prediction

While Chelsea are in concerning form, Lampard will likely name a strong side that will have too much firepower for Luton. 3-0 Chelsea.
