Chelsea team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Atletico Madrid

Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their Champions League clash with Atletico Madrid.

Chelsea will face La Liga leaders Atletico Madrid in the first leg of their last-16 Champions League clash on Tuesday evening, with the fixture taking place in Romania due to coronavirus restrictions.

The Blues will enter the European contest off the back of a 1-1 draw with Southampton in the Premier League on Saturday, which stretched their unbeaten run under new head coach Thomas Tuchel to seven matches.

The London club face a tough assignment to advance to the quarter-finals, though, as they prepare to take on an Atletico side sitting at the top of La Liga.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Diego Simeone's side, who lost 2-0 at home to Levante on Saturday.
