Chelsea team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Aston Villa

Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's injury and suspension news ahead of Monday's Premier League clash with Aston Villa.

Chelsea will be looking to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they welcome high-flying Aston Villa to Stamford Bridge on Monday.

Frank Lampard's side suffered a 3-1 defeat at Arsenal on Boxing Day and have now lost three of their last four league fixtures to drop into seventh position in the table.

The Blues have won each of their last six league meetings with Villa, though, and have not lost a home fixture to the seven-time English champions since December 2011.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Dean Smith's side, who are currently above Chelsea in the table and have two games in hand.

Status: Out
Type of injury: Hamstring
Possible return date: January 3 (vs. Manchester City)

Hakim Ziyech has missed Chelsea's last four Premier League fixtures with a hamstring problem, and he will also not be involved against Villa on December 28. The Morocco international is back in training, though, and could therefore make his return in the clash with Manchester City on January 3.


CHELSEA'S SUSPENSION LIST

Chelsea have no players suspended for their clash with Villa.
