Lewis Hall and Omari Hutchinson are in line to be involved for Chelsea against Arsenal on Tuesday.

The young pair were omitted from the Under-21s squad to face Brighton in the final game of Premier League 2 on Friday night.

Blues manager Frank Lampard has stated young players like Noni Madueke and Carney Chukwuemeka will be given their chance in the final games of the season.

He said: "If they deserve it, for sure. There are two things. There's the individual work, showing you deserve it. I'm fully for that.

"During my first period at the club, I came in with a transfer ban and losing big players and everyone said, 'of course, the young players get in the team'. They got in the team because they deserved it with how they trained.

"That's a culture and a way you have to have at a top football club. I don't think changes just for the moment, I think it should always be there.

"Players have to train, those seven games and days of training are all opportunities every day to try and show you deserve to be in the team. As I think I've probably shown as a coach, if you do that, you'll always get an opportunity with me."
