Sunday, Chelsea receives Luton on the occasion of the 16th round of the FA Cup. Both teams want to advance to the next round.
In the previous round, Chelsea easily gained the upper hand, at home, over Morecambe (4-0). Despite a bloated workforce and real ambitions, the Blues are disappointing in the league for the moment and occupy 8th place in the Premier League with 5 units behind the Big 4. In a slow-motion for a few weeks, they have only won one only recovery in the last 5 days, for 1 draw and 3 losses. In the middle of the week, the London formation lost to Leicester (2-0), weakening the position of Franck Lampard a little more.
Before playing this round of 16 FA Cup, Luton managed to get rid of Reading in the previous round (1-0) at home. With 33 points taken in 24 games, the team is currently 12th in the Championship. After a setback conceded at home against QPR (0-2), Luton made a good operation last weekend by winning on the lawn of Bournemouth (0-1).
Chelsea is only deprived of the essential French midfielder Kanté, injured. Franck Lampard could take advantage of this meeting to give time to certain elements usually substitutes. On the bench this week, the disappointing Timo Werner could start this FA Cup meeting.
Two elements are missing from Luton’s side: they are the experienced Crane and O’Kane, stranded in the infirmary. In 24 Championship games, the team have only scored 21 goals so far but conceded only 26. Ireland’s Collins is the club’s top scorer with 6 goals.
This meeting will be played behind closed doors.
Chelsea should logically win against a formation of Luton within reach. Chelsea victory!
