Olivier Giroud and Kurt Zouma are available again after also missing the Premier League win.

Prediction

After starting their Champions league campaign with a shock 1-0 defeat at home, Lampard will be hoping that this loss will give his side more focus in their meeting with the French side.

But Lille  have won eight games in a row at home and have Ligue 1’s joint top goal scorer Victor Osimhen, suggesting Chelsea might struggle to gain the three points they desperately want.

Expect a close game but for Chelsea to secure a tight 2-1 victory.
