After suffering back to back losses, Chelsea will look to get back to winning ways as they take on lower-tier side Grimsby Town in the League Cup.

Preview: Chelsea vs Grimsby Town

Chelsea come into this game having lost 2-1 to Liverpool in last weekend's titanic tie, meaning that Frank Lampard's side have now lost their last two games across all comps following a 1-0 loss to Valencia in the Champions League. Fortunately for the Blues, they will now face an easier opponent with League Two side Grimsby Town. Lampard will be eager to end his frustrating run at home as he has yet to win a fixture so far at Stamford Bridge.

Grimsby Town, meanwhile, have won just one of their last four league outings but earned a clean sheet against Macclesfield and are in 10th spot in the league - which is just two points away from a play-off berth. They'll be certainly hoping to match the impressive victory they earned back in 1983 - when they shocked Chelsea in a 3-2 December win.

Team news: Chelsea vs Grimsby Town

Chelsea: Although this is a must win game for Chelsea, Lampard is still expected to rotate his squad. Second-choice shot stopper Willy Caballero will feature in between the sticks, and others like Olivier Giroud, Ross Barkley, Pedro, Christian Pulisic, and Michy Batshuayi are expected to be involved in the starting XI after not playing against Liverpool last weekend. In addition, Reece James could feature in defense after recovering from an ankle injury.

Grimsby Town: No major injuries or suspensions
