Chelsea full squad revealed for Nottingham Forest clash as Lampard aims to end unwanted streak

Frank Lampard will be hoping to secure his first win at Stamford Bridge since returning to Chelsea on an interim basis when the Blues play host to relegation-threatened Nottingham Forest today.

Despite Lampard overseeing a severely underwhelming run of form, the Blues did end their nine-match winless streak by beating Bournemouth 3-1 at the Vitality Stadium last week.

Beating the Cherries will have provided Lampard's side with a much-needed injection of confidence, though beating the Reds is unlikely to prove an easy feat, given the visitor's ambitions to avoid relegation.

Forest beat basement boys Southampton 3-1 at the City Ground on Monday, a victory which significantly saw them move out of the drop zone and enhance their survival credentials.

By winning just their second away game of the campaign, Steve Cooper's men could move six points clear of 18th-placed Leicester City and all but end any concerns of an instant return to the Championship.

Lampard will be without the services of Reece James, Mason Mount, Kalidou Koulibaly, Marc Cucurella, and Ben Chillwell for the visit of Forest, though, Wesley Fofana has been training this week and returns to contention.

Here, football.london has all of those ready to play against Bournemouth.

Goalkeepers: Kepa Arrizabalaga, Edouard Mendy, Marcus Bettinelli, Lucas Bergstrom.

Defenders: Thiago Silva, Wesley Fofana, Benoit Badiashile, Trevoh Chalobah, Cesar Azpilicueta.

Midfielders: N'Golo Kante, Enzo Fernandez, Mateo Kovacic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Denis Zakaria, Conor Gallagher, Carney Chukwuemeka, Lewis Hall.

Forwards: Kai Havertz, Joao Felix, Mykhailo Mudryk, Hakim Ziyech, Christian Pulisic, Noni Madueke, David Datro Fofana, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
