Chelsea continue their quest for Europa League glory on Thursday evening when they welcome Malmo to Stamford Bridge for the second leg of their last-32 tie.
The Blues head into the match on the back of a 2-0 loss to Manchester United on Monday that saw their FA Cup defence end before the quarter-finals.
Maurizio Sarri's side are strong favourites to progress through from this European tie with Malmo, however, as they lead 2-1 from the first leg thanks to goals from Ross Barkley and Olivier Giroud.
Despite being under immense pressure to pick up a result, Sarri may be tempted to rotate his side as Chelsea face Manchester City in the EFL Cup final three days later.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up the West London outfit's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the match at Stamford Bridge.
CHELSEA'S INJURY LIST
Status: Slight doubt
Type of injury: Back
Possible return date: March 21
Fringe player Cahill has not featured since the 4-0 win over PAOK in the group stage but he is expected to be back available for selection in the next week.
Status: Slight doubt
Type of injury: Calf
Possible return date: March 21
Another player who has barely featured under Sarri this term, Drinkwater was added to Chelsea's Europa League squad for the knockout rounds but has been struggling to shake off a niggling calf strain that he picked up in training last week.
Status: Slight doubt
Type of injury: Back
Possible return date: March 21
Loftus-Cheek's troublesome back problem flared up again ahead of the first leg with Malmo, forcing Sarri to leave him behind, and he was not part of the squad for Monday's loss to Man United.
Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown
Something of a forgotten man at Stamford Bridge, Van Ginkel remains Chelsea's only long-term injury absentee having damaged his ACL. The Dutchman's last appearance for the club came in September 2013.
Status: Slight doubt
Type of injury: Flu
Possible return date: March 21
Zappacosta is struggling with flu and faces a late fitness test ahead of Thursday evening's match at Stamford Bridge.
Status: Slight doubt
Type of injury: Stomach bug
Possible return date: March 21
Spanish forward Pedro is another who has been struggling with illness this week. Sarri started him against United but he may miss out against Malmo.
Status: Slight doubt
Type of injury: Hamstring injury
Possible return date: March 21
Sarri revealed at his pre-match press conference that Kepa is carrying a hamstring injury. The keeper is unlikely to be risked ahead of the EFL Cup final.
CHELSEA SUSPENSION LIST
Chelsea have no players suspended for this match.
