Hudson Odoi And Tomori To Start, Zouma Benched: Chelsea’s Predicted Line Up To Face Burnley

Chelsea manager Frank Lampard will have some good selection dilemmas for tomorrow’s game against Burnley at Stamford Bridge. The Blues boss has a number of options to change things if he wishes in all areas of the pitch.

In defence, Lampard may well recall Fikayo Tomori in place of Kurt Zouma, with the Englishman having performed well for the most part in the FA Cup win against Nottingham Forest. Reece James is also likely to keep his place with Cesar Azplicueta possibly replacing Emerson at left-back.

In midfield, N’Golo Kante will probably come back into the side, along with Mason Mount, with Mateo Kovacic and Ross Barkley the two likeliest to give way.

With Christian Pulisic out with a tendon injury, it could present Calum Hudson-Odoi with another chance to impress from the start after his excellent performance against Forest. Willian and Tammy Abraham are also expected to be recalled by Lampard.

Chelsea’s Predicted XI To Face Burnley:

Kepa, James, Rudiger, Tomori, Azpilicueta, Kante, Jorginho, Mount, Willian, Abraham, Hudson-Odoi
