Mykhaylo Mudryk, Robert Sanchez - Chelsea injury news and return dates before Bournemouth clash

Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's Premier League fixture against Bournemouth.

Chelsea return to action on Sunday afternoon when they square off against Bournemouth in their final match of the Premier League season.

On Wednesday night, the Blues made it four successive victories as they recorded a 2-1 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium.

As a result, Mauricio Pochettino's side can secure sixth place in the standings with a point at Stamford Bridge, but they face a Bournemouth side who are bidding to extend their best-ever points total in the division.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the showdown with the Cherries.
