Chelsea enter the EFL Cup at the second-round stage this season after failing to qualify for Europe in 2025/26.
Xabi Alonso’s side host Luton on Wednesday, just 72 hours after their Premier League opener at Fulham.
There will be a recognisable face in the Luton dugout with former Arsenal and England midfielder Jack Wilshere in charge of the Hatters.
Luton have started their League One campaign with four points from two games and appear a good bet to challenge for promotion.
