Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the first leg of their Europa League semi-final with Eintracht Frankfurt.

Chelsea make the trip to Germany to face Eintracht Frankfurt in the first leg of the Europa League semi-finals on the back of a credible 1-1 draw at Manchester United.

Both the Blues and United produced improved performances in Sunday's Premier League fixture at Old Trafford, but Chelsea had opportunities to gain all three points in the North-West.

The result has left Chelsea in the top four of the standings, but Maurizio Sarri will still place high priority on qualifying for next season's Champions League by winning this competition.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for the West Londoners ahead of the meeting with the Bundesliga outfit on Thursday night.



CHELSEA'S INJURY LIST

Antonio Rudiger

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown

Antonio Rudiger picked up his second knee injury in the space of a few weeks against United, and Sarri has acknowledged that the German is almost certainly out of Thursday's match.


Willian

Status: Doubt
Type of injury: Ankle
Possible return date: May 2

Willian needed to be substituted against United after being on the receiving end of a strong tackle from Marcos Rojo. However, Sarri has suggested that the playmaker will be ready to feature against Frankfurt.


Callum Hudson-Odoi

Status: Out
Type of injury: Achilles
Possible return date: Unknown

Callum Hudson-Odoi will not return to action until next season after sustaining an Achilles injury against Burnley on Easter Monday.


Ethan Ampadu

Status: Out
Type of injury: Back
Possible return date: Unknown

Ethan Ampadu has not been in contention since sustaining a back problem while on international duty with Wales in March, and Chelsea are yet to provide a possible return date.


Marco van Ginkel

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown

Marco van Ginkel is nearing a return after spending the campaign on the sidelines with a serious knee injury, but the Dutchman will not be involved before the end of the season.


CHELSEA'S SUSPENSION LIST

Chelsea have no suspension issues ahead of travelling to Germany for Thursday's first leg.
