Chelsea injury, suspension list and return dates for Djurgardens IF: Christopher Nkunku, Marc Guiu updates

Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the second leg of their Conference League semi-final against Djurgardens IF.

Chelsea return to action on Thursday evening when they play host to Djurgardens IF in the second leg of their Conference League semi-final.

The Blues hold a 4-1 advantage from the first leg and will expect to get over the line against their Swedish opponents.

Enzo Maresca witnessed his team impress in a 3-1 victory over Premier League champions Liverpool on Sunday, the expectation being that many of those players will be rested for this encounter.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's injury and suspension news ahead of welcoming the minnows to Stamford Bridge.

Last featuring for Chelsea on February 3, Marc Guiu is said to have been cleared to return to training. Maresca acknowledged last week that the Spaniard was 'one or two weeks' away from coming back into contention, so there is the possibility of an appearance on the substitutes' bench for this fixture.
