Hudson-Odoi benched as injured Wood misses out for Burnley

The 3.5% of Fantasy Premier League managers invested in Callum Hudson-Odoi (£6.0m) were left in the lurch by Frank Lampard’s latest team sheet.

After an assist in each of his last three league outings, the exciting winger has been named on the bench for the first time since Gameweek 7.

Hudson-Odoi has been replaced int he starting line-up by Christian Pulisic (£7.1m) after the American himself displayed strong form of late.

It looks as if Lampard has lined his troops up in a 4-3-3 formation for the trip to Burnley, which might be a little bit discouraging for owners of Mason Mount (£6.9m), although he does start.

It is probable that the budget midfielder will be deployed in the central midfield trio alongside Jorginho (£5.1m) and Mateo Kovačić (£5.3m), having spent much of this season in attacking midfield.

Tammy Abraham (£7.8m) leads the line, of course, flanked by Pulisic and Willian (£7.0m).

Meanwhile, Burnley are missing Chris Wood (£6.2m) to injury, with Jay Rodriguez (£5.7m) coming into the side to replace him alongside Ashley Barnes (£6.4m).

Burnley XI: Pope; Pieters, Mee, Tarkowski, Lowton; McNeil, Westwood, Cork, Hendrick; A Barnes, Rodriguez.

Chelsea XI: Kepa; Alonso, Tomori, Zouma, Azpilicueta; Mount, Jorginho, Kovačić; Willian, Abraham, Pulisic.

    Chelsea gone to pot after Giroud has come on. Time for Lampard to sell him.

    I wish that was a Tomori OG, but looked possibly on target. Even though it would have been the total other side of the net at least.
