Chelsea's three-match winless run in all competitions has coincided with Hakim Ziyech's absence from the side. The Morocco international strained his hamstring in the victory over Leeds United and is not expected to return until after Christmas.

Chelsea's wide options are further depleted by the absence of Callum Hudson-Odoi, who also injured his hamstring in a recent training session. Lampard is hopeful of having the winger back before the end of the month, possibly for the Boxing Day clash with Arsenal.
