Chelsea team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Burnley

Chelsea play host to Burnley on Easter Monday looking to return to winning ways in the Premier League.

Maurizio Sarri's side have progressed through to the Europa League semi-finals, but the Blues remain outsiders to earn a spot in the top four of the league standings.

Chelsea suffered a 2-0 defeat at Liverpool in their last top-flight outing, a result which has left the club sitting in fifth position and having played a game more than fourth-placed Arsenal.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for Sarri's team ahead of the match against the Clarets.
