Sports Mole rounds up all of the latest injury and suspension news ahead of Wednesday's FA Cup clash between Chelsea and Leeds United.

The Blues have defeated Preston North End and Aston Villa to make it this far, while the in-form Whites dumped Peterborough United and Plymouth Argyle out in the earlier rounds, and here Sports Mole rounds up the team news for both clubs.
