Confirmed Chelsea line up to face Valencia

Chelsea face Valencia in just over an hours time in the second to last Group match of their Champions League campaign.

The Blues need all three points in order to advance into the knockout stages of Europe’s most prestigious competition. Failing that, then it will all come down to the final group match against Lille.

The Blues will be looking to bounce back from a narrow defeat to Manchester City at the weekend, one they felt they should have got more out of.

But their league form has been good recently and they will be looking to use confidence from that to advance this evening.

Frank Lampard will be hoping to get the business done tonight though and has picked a strong starting eleven in Spain tonight.

Reece James starts for Chelsea, as does Andreas Christensen. Cesar Azpilicueta goes to left back.

CHELSEA: Kepa; Azpilicueta, Zouma, Christensen, James; Jorginho, Kanté, Kovacic; Willian, Abraham, Pulisic.
