Follow the latest updates live as Chelsea look to bounce back from their chastening Premier League opener loss to Manchester United when they host Leicester City at Stamford Bridge.

It was a baptism of fire for new manager Frank Lampard as his side suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat at Old Trafford last weekend, and lost Wednesday night’s Uefa Super Cup against Liverpool in a penalty shootout defeat in Istanbul. It remains to be seen how much the long trip took out of Lampard’s squad, but there were at least signs of progression that should continue in their second league game of the season.

Leicester meanwhile were held to a 0-0 draw with Wolves last weekend and will be looking to record their first win of the season to kickstart their campaign into life. Follow the live updates below.
