Chelsea welcome Morecambe to Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon in what should be a well-timed and routine encounter for Enzo Maresca's side.
The Blues had been considered Liverpool's closest rivals for the Premier League title only a few weeks ago following a run of eight-consecutive wins in all competitions. But they've stuttered of late having failed to win any of their last four top-flight matches.
The run started with a stalemate at Goodison Park against Everton before suffered defeats to Fulham and Ipswich Town, before a 1-1 draw with London rivals Crystal Palace. So Saturday could be viewed as an ideal fixture for some of Maresca's side to recharge their batteries or find their form.
Maresca has incredible strength in depth at Chelsea, and he's expected to rotate for the visit of the League Two strugglers. Despite a good run in the competition after victories over Worthing and Bradford City, the Shrimps are sat 23rd in the division and facing a very tricky relegation battle to preserve their EFL status.
