Sheffield United vs Chelsea – Team News

Chelsea face Sheffield United at Stamford Bridge in just under an hour, and the teams are in!

Frank Lampard has been forced into a change at the base of midfield, where the injuries to Billy Gilmour and N’Golo Kante have meant that Jorginho gets his first start since the restart.

The rest of the defence and midfield stays the same, with the only other change up front, where Tammy Abraham gets a start ahead of Olivier Giroud.

That’s likely to be a slightly controversial move in the view of some fans, who prefer the link-up play of the France striker – but there are just as many who will be delighted to see the youth produce get another chance to add to his impressive goal tally from this season.

This will not be an easy game – but it’s easier than the other matches we have coming up, so we have to make the most of it.

Here are the full team line-ups for Chelsea vs West Ham (kick off at 17:30 pm GMT):
