Chelsea are in Germany to face the Bundesliga side as they prepare to face Manchester United next week.
And Lampard has offered a glimpse of what is to come with his team selection.
Tammy Abraham, who was handed the number nine shirt earlier today, plays through the middle and is supported by Pedro and Christian Pulisic.
A midfield of Matteo Kovacic, Jorginho and Mason Mount will provide support from deep after impressing together on pre-season already.
Emerson has been given the nod at left-back while Cesar Azpilicueta captains the side.
Kurt Zouma and Andreas Christensen play at centre-back with David Luiz on the bench.
Also on the bench are Ross Barkley, Olivier Giroud and Marcos Alonso who may have hoped for a starting berth.
Lampard was also able to bring N’Golo Kante back into the squad after fears he would miss the start of the season with an injury.
