Chelsea's recent form has shown signs of improvement under new manager Alonso. After a 3-2 victory over Fulham in the first league round, Alonso has made it clear that he will rotate the squad for this EFL Cup second-round tie to conserve energy for the upcoming Premier League games. Alonso favors a 3-4-2-1 tactical system, which emphasizes ball control and forward passes. The double attacking midfielders, Rogers and Palmer, are extremely destructive. Even though the top striker João Pedro might be rested, the rotated lineup led by Welbeck, with Estève and Gitens as support, still has the ability to break through the opponent's defense. On the other hand, Luton, currently in League One, has had a steady start to their season. However, there is an obvious gap in overall strength between the two teams. Moreover, key midfielders like Jordan Clark are out due to injuries. Their defense will face great pressure when up against the Premier League-level attacking power. In this EFL Cup enco
