Team News
Chelsea
Chelsea left-back Ben Chilwell picked up a hamstring injury in the win over Bournemouth and now joins injured quintet Reece James, Marc Cucurella, Kalidou Koulibaly, Mason Mount and Armando Broja on the sidelines, while Wesley Fofana, who missed the win over the Cherries, is doubtful with a hamstring issue.
Cesar Azpilicueta is expected to start at left-back in the absence of both Chilwell and Cucurella, with Lampard set to stick with a back four including Badiashile, Thiago Silva and Trevoh Chalobah.
Mateo Kovacic could return to centre-midfield at the expense of either Gallagher or N'Golo Kante, while Felix, Sterling, Hakim Ziyech and Christian Pulisic will all be pushing to start on the flanks ahead of either Mykhaylo Mudryk or Noni Madueke, who both started against Bournemouth.
Chelsea possible starting lineup:
Kepa; Chalobah, Silva, Badiashile, Azpilicueta; Kante, Fernandez, Kovacic; Madueke, Havertz, Sterling

Nottingham Forest
As for Nottingham Forest, Cooper has revealed that Aurier is "touch and go" due to fitness issues and Renan Lodi (knock) is also a doubt, while Dean Henderson, Chris Wood, Scott McKenna, Giulian Biancone, Omar Richards, Neco Williams, Jonjo Shelvey, Jack Colback and Emmanuel Dennis all remain in the treatment room. Gustavo Scarpa is also sidelined but he has resumed full training and is closing in on a return.
The potential absence of Aurier could see Joe Worrall handed a start at right-back, while Harry Toffolo is the most likely candidate to play at left-back if Lodi is not deemed fit to start.
Cheikhou Kouyate and Remo Freuler will push to start in centre-midfield, while a front three of Gibbs-White, Awoniyi and Brennan Johnson is expected to continue following their impressive performance as a trio last time out.
Nottingham Forest possible starting lineup:
Navas; Worrall, Felipe, Niakhate, Toffolo; Freuler, Mangala, Danilo; Gibbs-White, Johnson; Awoniyi
Prediction: Chelsea 2-1 Nottingham Forest
