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

Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for Chelsea ahead of their visit to champions Manchester City on Sunday.

Chelsea will be looking to do the double over champions Manchester City when they travel to the Etihad Stadium on Sunday.

The Blues dealt City their first defeat of the season in December, but have since lost three times in the league to leave themselves in a three-way tussle with Manchester United and Arsenal for the final Champions League spot.

Indeed, Maurizio Sarri's side could find themselves outside the top four by the time they kick off on Sunday, despite returning to form with a 5-0 thrashing of Huddersfield Town last time out.

Eden Hazard and new arrival Gonzalo Higuain both helped themselves to braces in that match but will come up against a much sterner test at the home of the champions.

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

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown

Something of a forgotten man at Stamford Bridge, Van Ginkel remains Chelsea's only injury absentee having damaged his ACL. The Dutchman's last appearance for the club came in September 2013.



CHELSEA'S SUSPENSION LIST

Chelsea have no players suspended for this match, but Jorginho, Marcos Alonso and Antonio Rudiger are all just one yellow card away from a ban.
