Chelsea team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Manchester City

Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League clash with Manchester City on Saturday.

Three weeks before their highly-anticipated meeting with Manchester City in the Champions League final, Chelsea travel to the Etihad Stadium to take on the Premier League champions-elect on Saturday night.

The Blues' 3-1 aggregate victory over Real Madrid in the Champions League semi-finals saw them advance to the showpiece event in Europe, as Timo Werner and Mason Mount struck in a 2-0 second-leg win at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea's top-four destiny is also very much in their own hands as they occupy the final Champions League spot in the table, and third-placed Leicester City are also within touching distance.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their trip to the Etihad.
