Morecambe FC play in League two and it is expected that Frank Lampard will use the FA Cup tie as an opportunity to give some rest to a number of first team players and give some valuable minutes to some of the academy’s top rated prospects.

Sunday could turn out to be a very special day indeed for one youngster as 16-year-old Soonsup-Bell turns 17 on the day in what could turn out to be a memorable birthday.
Chelsea will be hoping for a good result on Sunday especially manager Frank Lampard who has come under fire recently following a string of poor results.
