Posted by

Some Chelsea fans can’t contain their excitement after seeing Frank Lampard’s lineup for today’s clash with Leicester, this is the Blues first home game of the season.

Frank Lampard has made just once change to the side that started Wednesday evening’s UEFA Super Cup clash against Liverpool ahead of his competitive debut at former stomping ground Stamford Bridge.

Lampard’s sole change is bringing wonderkid Mason Mount into the starting lineup in the place of Mateo Kovacic, the 20-year-old looked lively after he came off the bench against the Reds.

Chelsea fans will be hoping that their side can bounce back after a miserable defeat against rivals Manchester United in their league opener and a gutting loss on penalties against Liverpool in midweek.

It will be interesting to see how Chelsea’s defence fare against another counter-attacking side in Leicester City; Andreas Christensen, Kurt Zouma and Cesar Azpilicueta were ripped apart by United last weekend.

Tammy Abraham was the star that missed the decisive penalty in Wednesday’s shootout and the youngster has been left on the bench this afternoon.

Check out Chelsea’s lineup below:
