Krasnodar V Chelsea: Confirmed Lineup For Both Teams Out

Chelsea go away to Krasnodar in their second Champions League outing of the season this evening.

Frank Lampard will be hoping for goals in Russia tonight after consecutive 0-0 draws against Sevilla and Manchester United over the past week.

After conceding three goals in a disappointing draw with Southampton earlier this month, the Blues displayed a newfound grit and solidity to earn clean sheets and respectable stalemates in their last two outings.

Chelsea take on Rennes next Wednesday and will be eager to go into that clash having beaten minnows Krasnodar.

Krasnodar XI (4-2-3-1): M. Safonov, I. Smolnikov, Kaio, A. Martynovich, Y. Chernov, D. Utkin, T. Vilhena, K. Olsson, Y., Gazinskiy, C. Ramírez, M. Berg

Chelsea XI (4-2-3-1): T. Werner, C. Hudson-Odoi, K. Havertz, H. Ziyech, M. Kovačić, Jorginho, B. Chilwell, K. Zouma, A. Rüdiger, C. Azpilicueta, E. Mendy
