Chelsea return to Premier League action on Saturday afternoon when they play host to Leicester City.
Thomas Tuchel's side have endured a mixed start to the new campaign, collecting four points from fixtures against Everton, Tottenham Hotspur and Leeds United respectively.
The game against the Foxes is made all the more intriguing due to the ongoing transfer saga involving Wesley Fofana, but Tuchel may be more focused on the players which are currently unavailable for selection.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their contest at Stamford Bridge.
