Two Chelsea youngsters set for another chance on Sunday as Lampard struck with injuries

Frank Lampard has a large number of absentees to contend with on Sunday, as he prepares to face his former Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti at Stamford Bridge.

Everton are the visitors, and it is another massive game for both teams.

The Toffees will fancy their chances especially after the inconsistent season that Chelsea have had, but The Blues are fighting hard for that Champions League spot.

Ancelotti will fancy his chances even more though, with Chelsea likely to be missing nine first team players through injury and one suspension.

Lampard will have no other option than to fill his squad with a few talented academy players. Well, one of which is actually now classed as a first team player and actually had a case for starting regardless of injuries, the excellent Billy Gilmour.

After a fine display from the 18-year old against Liverpool this week, he is nailed on to start on Sunday.

Faustino Anjorin is the other one likely to be called up for at least a spot on the bench, and might even push for a starting spot depending on late fitness tests to others.

I have no doubt that both have the quality to do a great job if called on, but Chelsea are down to the bare bones!
