Chelsea want to win back-to-back Premier League Matches for the first time since November today against Leicester, MySportDab reports. 

Chelsea were fortunate to get a 1-0 win over Fulham over the weekend after Frank Lampard made some changes to his squad.

Chelsea Team News Vs Leicester City

Goalkeeper: Edouard Mendy

The new Goalkeeper has been a bit shaky in recent games and was lucky not to concede in the game against Fulham after rushing out.

But Mendy remains Frank Lampard’s No 1 between the sticks ahead of Kepa Arrizabalaga.

Defenders: Chilwell, James, Silva, Zouma

Reece James has regained his fitness and now available for Frank Lampard to pick in the starting line up ahead of Cesar Azpilicueta.

He’s got a tough choice in defence with Antonio Rudiger doing very well against Fulham.

Kurt Zouma is likely to return to the team to play with Thiago Silva in defence for the Leicester City match.

Midfielders: Mount, Jorginho, Havertz

Frank Lampard has a tough decision to make in midfield. Mason Mount is the starting player in recent weeks.

The youngster has been Chelsea’s best player so far this season but the two other players alongside him remain unknown.

With Kante injured, Billy Gilmour is close to getting his first Premier League start but Frank Lampard might pick Jorginho instead.

Forwards: Ziyech, Abraham, Hudson-Odoi

Lampard has different options to select from in attack with a host of top class players available.

Christian Pulisic was lively against Fulham, but he has not produced the final end product in recent weeks.

Olivier Giroud lacked support in attack last time out as he was selected ahead of Timo Werner and Tammy Abraham.

However, Abraham is expected to make his return to the starting line-up.

Callum Hudson-Odoi has impressed for Chelsea in recent weeks and could get his third start of this season against Leicester City.

Chelsea Vs Leicester City Kick-off?

The match is scheduled to start by 9:15pm.
