Chelsea make the trip to Old Trafford to face Manchester United on Sunday looking to gain an edge over their opponents in the race for a top-four position in the Premier League table.

The Blues failed to capitalise on United, Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal all suffering defeat at the weekend as they registered a 2-2 draw with Burnley on Easter Monday.

Maurizio Sarri's team currently sit in fourth spot, but their rivals are all in action before the game in the North-West on Sunday afternoon.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for the West Londoners ahead of the match with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side.
