Chelsea v Luton Town live stream, BBC, Sunday 24 January, 12pm GMT
Chelsea will be looking to ease the pressure on under-fire manager Frank Lampard when they face Luton in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
According to recent reports, Lampard is running out of time to save his job. The Chelsea board have reportedly started searching for potential replacements should they be forced to act, with Thomas Tuchel, Ralf Rangnick, Ralph Hasenhuttl and Julian Nagelsmann all linked with the position. Lampard needs to turn results around quickly, and anything other than victory over Championship opposition on Sunday could seal his fate.
Chelsea have won just two of their last eight Premier League matches and will slip to ninth place in the table if Aston Villa beat Newcastle this weekend. They did, however, perform well in the third round of the FA Cup, beating Morecambe 4-0 at Stamford Bridge. Luton will provide a sterner test, but this could still be a chance for Chelsea to rebuild some confidence after a poor recent run in the league.

Having only narrowly avoided relegation last season, Luton are enjoying a more comfortable campaign in the Championship this time around. Nathan Jones led the Hatters to safety in 2019/20 and continues to do an excellent job at Kenilworth Road, with Luton currently sitting pretty in mid-table. They were beaten 2-0 by Brentford in their last league outing, though, and are still massive underdogs despite Chelsea’s struggles.
Chelsea will assess Olivier Giroud and N’Golo Kante, both of whom are nursing minor injuries. Lampard might ordinarily make wholesale changes for an FA Cup fourth round game against lower-league opposition, but he will not want to take too many risks given his precarious position. Timo Werner could return to the side after beginning Chelsea’s last two Premier League assignments among the substitutes.
Luton will be unable to call upon the services of Martin Cranie and midfielder Eunan O'Kane, who are both sidelined with injury.
Kick-off is at 12pm GMT and the game is being shown on BBC iPlayer and BBC One in the UK. See below for watching details where you are.

Use a VPN to watch a Chelsea v Luton Town live stream from outside your country
If you’re on holiday or just simply out of the country, your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows exactly where you are from your IP address. Your access to the game will be automatically blocked, which is annoying if you’ve paid a subscription fee and don't want to use an illegal, buffering stream that makes you miss another Bukayo Saka assist. And that's where we recommend ExpressVPN (more on which below).
All you need to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to get beyond such aggravations (assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs). A VPN creates a private connection between your device and the internet, meaning suppliers can’t work out where you are and what you’re doing. The info going to and from is entirely encrypted.
There are plenty of options out there, including:
FourFourTwo’s brainy office mates TechRadar love its super speedy connections, trustworthy security and the fact it works with Android, Apple, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, PS4 and loads more. You also get a money-back guarantee, 24/7 support and it's currently available for a knockdown price. Go get it!
A cheaper option; its cheapest package current averages at a wallet-friendly £2.29 per month.
Slightly more expensive but supports up to 10 devices, and you can pay for it every three months if you need to.
