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

Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the Premier League encounter with Manchester United on Sunday.

Chelsea make the trip to Old Trafford to face Manchester United on Sunday looking to gain an edge over their opponents in the race for a top-four position in the Premier League table.

The Blues failed to capitalise on United, Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal all suffering defeat at the weekend as they registered a 2-2 draw with Burnley on Easter Monday.

Maurizio Sarri's team currently sit in fourth spot, but their rivals are all in action before the game in the North-West on Sunday afternoon.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for the West Londoners ahead of the match with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side.
