Chelsea v Leeds United

Chelsea head coach Frank Lampard must decide whether to hand Olivier Giroud his first Premier League start of the season following the Frenchman's four-goal haul against Sevilla on Wednesday.

The Blues will recall a number of key players who were rested in midweek.

Diego Llorente is fit for Leeds but boss Marcelo Bielsa says he would prefer the centre-back to play for the under-23 side before making his debut.

Pablo Hernandez, Jamie Shackleton and Adam Forshaw remain sidelined.
