It is match day for Chelsea as the Premier League action returns after the international break.
The Blues make the trip to the Etihad Stadium to face Manchester City, with Frank Lampard returning to one of his former sides.
Chelsea go into the game one point and one place above their opponents, with the Blues on a six-game winning streak in the Premier League.
And ahead of the game, we take a look at the latest news surrounding the Blues, below.
The midfield conundrum for Frank Lampard
There are some selection headaches for Chelsea head coach Frank Lampard as he takes the Blues to face his old side Manchester City.
From who to play at full-back to who to play in midfield with Jorginho available again after suspension, Lampard admits it is a nice headache to have with the options in the middle of the park.
"I want it to be a positive issue for starters," he said, when asked at his pre-match press conference about getting the best out of Jorginho and N'Golo Kante playing together.
"On top of that, you mention [Mateo] Kovacic. I think in recent games a lot of people would say he is one of our outstanding performers and quite rightly. We have Mason Mount, Ross Barkley and Ruben [Loftus-Cheek] coming back.
"In terms of people who are playing regular at the moment it is great for me. I think something we have done pretty well as the season has gone on is have a bit of rotation and fluidity in our game in midfield and not pinning people down so they are stuck in that position.
"I hope that can carry on and bring the best out of the abilities of all the midfield players. I think in the abilities that they all have is that they can all apply different roles of a midfield player. They can all be the deeper player, they can all be higher up the pitch, they all have energy to get around the pitch. So I think we can use them all collectively."
Pep Guardiola's high praise
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is widely regarded as one of the top managers in world football.
The Spaniard, who has led City to two Premier League titles in the past two years, has also enjoyed success with Barcelona and Bayern Munich.
And although his opposite number is yet to taste such success, Guardiola has said he sees similarities between him and Lampard as they prepare to meet for the first time in the dugout.
"Yeah in those terms it is quite similar. You could say a little bit but it is too early. He has been a manager for a year and a half and I am a little longer because I am a little older but he has his future in his hands," he said, as reported by Manchester Evening News .
Guardiola also says that Chelsea is the "perfect" place for Lampard to be at this point in his career.
"From my experience, experience doesn’t count much. I would say that when you know the club it is a good advantage and Lampard knows Chelsea perfectly and everything behind the scenes - media, fans, players - so that is good," he added.
"For Frank, it is perfect, an ideal situation. At the big clubs you have incredible players so it is easier to do a good job in Chelsea or Barcelona than another club. If you work a lot and have patience, the results and success can come."
Boost for Manchester City
He may have missed the 3-1 defeat against Liverpool before the international break, but Manchester City are set to welcome back Ederson for the game against Chelsea.
The Brazilian goalkeeper went off with a muscular injury in the 1-1 draw with Atalanta in the Champions League in early November, with Claudio Bravo coming on to replace him, before being sent off as Kyle Walker went in goal for the final few minutes.
Bravo then played at Anfield as City lost further ground on the league leaders, but Pep Guardiola has confirmed that Ederson has trained without pain and will be fit to start in between the posts against Frank Lampard's men.
"Ederson is back, he said in his pre-match press conference.
"He trained in the last few days without pain."
