These are the confirmed lineups for Chelsea vs Lincoln City in the EFL Cup. Premier League meets League 1 as the Blues aim to stop a skid of three matches in a row without a win, including a humbling at the Allianz by three goals to one. There will be rotation on both sides as the two teams battle with hectic schedules.
Filip Jorgensen starts in goal with a back line of Malo Gusto, Wes Fofana, Trevoh Chalobah, and Jorrel Hato. Andrey Santos pairs with Enzo Fernandez in midfield with Alejandro Garnacho, Facundo Buonanotte, and Jamie Gittens supporting Tyrique George up front.
A host of rotation up front to get some minutes into the legs of Garnacho, Buonanotte, and Gittens. Fofana and Chalobah remain the apparent CB option following the failures of the Chalobah/Tosin Adarabioyo pairing.
Zach Jeacock starts in goal with Tendayi Darikwa, Lewis Montsma, Ryley Towler, Conor McGrandles, Sonny Bradley, Rob Street, Ben House, Tom Hamer, Ivan Varfolomeev, and Freddie Draper rounding out the eleven.
A lot of the usual names stick around but there is a surprising change in goal and up front as Collins and Bayliss drop out.
Stay tuned for the confirmed lineups for Chelsea vs Lincoln City in the EFL Cup. There will be news as well as discussions on who started, who missed out, and what alterations the managers could make to his setup.
