Norwich v Chelsea preview: David Luiz set to return

David Luiz is set to play for only the second time since October when Chelsea travel to Norwich in the FA Cup on Saturday (kick-off 5.30pm).

Luiz is fit again following a knee injury and lost his place in the side to Andreas Christensen, but is likely to play as the Blues rotate their options.

The Brazilian comes back into a team that is in good recent form having won five of their last seven fixtures. Chelsea’s FA Cup pedigree is also strong; winning the tournament four times in the last 11 seasons.
Norwich, who are unbeaten in their last three games in the Sky Bet Championship, have been knocked out in the third round of the FA Cup for the last four seasons.
Team news
Canaries duo Harrison Reed and Marco Stiepermann will miss the visit of Chelsea.

Midfielder Reed was forced off early in the 0-0 draw at Burton Albion due to a hip problem, while Stiepermann sustained a groin injury following the defeat to Brentford.

Along with Luiz, Charly Musonda could feature following a groin injury, but Eden Hazard is a doubt with a knock to his calf sustained in Wednesday’s draw at Arsenal.
