Frank Lampard is set to make changes to his Chelsea side once again for the visit of Brentford to Stanford Bridge in Wednesday evening. The Blues caretaker boss has been required to manage his resources so far this season to accommodate his stars' fitness, which has seen a number of changes in personnel and systems.
Four defeats have followed and after being knocked out of the Champions League by Real Madrid, Lampard has finally found time to spend on the training pitch with his squad. However, the 44-year-old is already without two players who started against Los Blancos with Reece James ruled out for the season and Kai Havertz still struggling with a knee issue.
Mason Mount, who came on off of the bench against Real Madrid, is also likely to miss the remainder of the campaign as he goes under the knife to deal with his pelvic issue.
