Chelsea vs Derby County: What time, what channel, how to stream online, prediction, team news, line-ups, odds and more

Chelsea face Derby in the fourth round of the EFL Cup on Wednesday evening.

Frank Lampard returns to Stamford Bridge for the first time as a manager after enjoying 13 glittering years as a player there. He is sure to receive a glowing reception from the home fans but will be hoping to send them home unhappy after seeing off Premier League Manchester United in the previous round. Maurizio Sarri’s Blues beat Liverpool to make it this far and the Italian will have more than one eye on a first trophy in the English game and will be hopeful of progression here.
