What is the team news?
N’Golo Kante looks set to start his first game since January 3 for Sunday’s clash with Sheffield United – but Thiago Silva is unlikely to feature.
The Blues edged a 1-0 win at Tottenham on Thursday night thanks to a Jorginho penalty.
But Thomas Tuchel and Co suffered a blow after Silva limped off with a muscle injury in his right leg in the first-half.
Chelsea were given a boost as Kante came off the bench to make his return after over a month out.
And now the France midfielder is expected to replace Jorginho in the heart of the Blues’ midfield.
Edouard Mendy is certain to keep his place in goal, with Cesar Azpilicueta starting on the right of a central back-three.
For Sheffield United, Ben Osborn could make his return.
Osborn, 26, resumed full training this week after missing the last five matches through injury.
Chelsea loanee Ethan Ampadu will play no part against his parent club.
