Chelsea team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Rennes

Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Wednesday's Champions League clash with Rennes.

Chelsea will be looking to make it back-to-back victories in the Champions League when they welcome French side Rennes to Stamford Bridge on Wednesday night.

The Blues have picked up four points from their two Group E fixtures thus far, drawing with Sevilla on October 20 before recording a 4-0 victory over Krasnodar last week.

Frank Lampard's side will also enter the match off the back of an impressive 3-0 victory over Burnley in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Rennes, who have picked up one point from their two European matches this term.
