TEAM NEWS
Norwich City: After winning at Newcastle last weekend, Farke is expected to name a similar side in this week's game. Norwich signed Sam Byram in the summer, who will probably replace left-back Lewis who went off with thigh cramps last weekend. Tim Klose, Ibrahim Amadou and Adam Idah are on their way back to making a full recovery, which gives Norwich even more defensiv options, but they are still missing Onel Hernandez, Christoph Zimmermann and Josep Drmic.
Chelsea: After drawing against Leicester last weekend, but with his defence being very effective, Frank Lampard is also expected to name a similar side, with Giroud once again set to lead the line. Willian is on return from an injury, and came off the bench last weekend, however he is not set to dislodge Pulisic or Pedro from the starting XI. Frank Lampard will be needing a win in tomorrow's game to get the fans behind him and the player's morales more positive.
MANAGER'S THOUGHTS
Daniel Farke says his team will have to be at "100% to compete with Chelsea" as he claims they will be more highly motivated to get a win under their belts, due to not winning anything as of yet, which makes them even more dangerous than if they would have won all their games so far. Farke says that he and his players are well aware that they are the underdogs going into this game, but that if they perform at their best, they have a chance. Farke has come up against Lampard before when he managed Derby and has said he "likes Frank's style".
Frank Lampard: "We want to win of course. We must remain confident. We want to win the game but must be respectful of Norwich. I know the dangers that they have." He also states that Kante picked up an injury during the week and will be assessed in the next 24hours to see if he is match-fit. Rudiger is not fit for tomorrow's game, but Lampard is hoping he'll be ready for next week. Lampard knows Norwich well from coming up against them last season in the championship and this will help with preparation, but will only make him aware of their dangers.
Did you know?
The Canaries have to look all the way back to December 1994 for their last win over the West London club, when a brace from Ashley Ward and a goal from Jamie Cureton guided them to a 3-0 home win.
