Chelsea v Morecambe

Chelsea will be without injured trio N'Golo Kante, Andreas Christensen and Reece James for Sunday's FA Cup third-round tie against Morecambe.

Lewis Bate, Henry Lawrence, Valentino Livramento and 16-year-old forward Jude Soonsup-Bell could all make their debuts for Frank Lampard's side.

Brad Lyons may come straight into the Morecambe side after joining the League Two club from Blackburn on loan.

Morecambe are back in training after a Covid-19 shutdown, with their players self-isolating for 10 days.
