Chelsea are taking on Luton Town in the FA Cup fourth round today at a snowy Stamford Bridge, as Frank Lampard desperately seeks a win to bring some momentum back to the team. The Blues have struggled in recent weeks with a run of form which has seen the slip down the Premier League table to be in the middle of the pack. Luton meanwhile have been going reasonably well in the Championship and are currently 13th, well clear of trouble.
Lampard makes seven changes to his most recent league team with Kepa Arrizabalaga taking up station in goal, Kurt Zouma restored to defence, Billy Gilmour in midfield and Hakim Ziyech starting on the wing in what appears to be a 4-2-3-1 formation. Follow all the action below.
TEAM NEWS
Luton have made four changes to their team after a defeat at Brentford last week. In come Ryan Tunnicliffe, Jordan Clark, Kal Naismith and Glen Rea, with top scorer James Collins on the bench.

TEAM NEWS
Chelsea, as expected, make a host of changes. Kepa returns in goal and there are starts for Andreas Christensen and Emerson in defence. Youngster Billy Gilmour gets some more valuable first-team experience, too, while Mason Mount captains the side despite his relative youth.
