Chelsea team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Crystal Palace

Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their FA Cup semi-final with Crystal Palace.

Chelsea will be bidding to book their spot in the final of the FA Cup when they take on Crystal Palace in the semi-finals of the competition on Sunday afternoon.

The Blues exited the Champions League in the quarter-finals on Tuesday evening despite winning 3-2 at Real Madrid in the second leg of their last-eight affair at Bernabeu.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Palace, who last reached the final of the competition in 2016.
