The Blues head into this contest looking to record their third successive win in all competitions, the second of which came against AC Milan in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
However, at a time when Graham Potter's side are embarking on an unrelenting schedule, the Englishman continues to have to contend with injury issues to key players in his squad.
