Chelsea came out smoking in their preparations for the Premier League restart, beating Queens Park Rangers 7-1 in a friendly encounter at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Billy Gilmour scored twice each while Mason Mount, Willian and Olivier Giroud also got on the scoresheet as Chelsea improved on a 1-0 victory over Reading in a similar warm-up friendly last week.
N’Golo Kante, who made a return to full contact training on Tuesday after expressing concerns over his safety due to the coronavirus outbreak, started the game against Championship side QPR.
Chelsea were in a commanding 4-1 half-time at the break.
It was much of the same after the break, with another strike from Loftus-Cheek adding to the scoreline before Gilmour grabbed two for himself to put the shine on a fantastic Chelsea display.
Lampard’s side are fourth in the league with 48 points from 29 games ahead of the resumption of the season on Wednesday following the coronavirus disruption.
Chelsea are scheduled to face Aston Villa away next Sunday in their first game back.
