Lampard: "It means a lot to the club, I know that because I lost two finals. I understand the feeling of when you work hard to get into this game, that you give your all to try to win it. It's another trophy for the club and will give us a feeling that if we can beat Liverpool and win a cup, we can go on from there."

Frank Lampard has opted for three changes to his Chelsea side following their heaviest ever opening-day defeat in 104 league seasons when they were beaten 4-0 at Manchester United. It sees Christian Pulisic make his first Chelsea start, while N'Golo Kante has been passed fit to feature despite fears he would have to miss out through injury. Olivier Giroud also comes in to lead the line in place of Tammy Abraham.
