Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Thursday's FA Cup last-16 tie with Barnsley.

Chelsea head to second-tier side Barnsley on Thursday evening in the last 16 of the FA Cup.

The Blues enter the tie in good form thanks to three wins and a draw since Thomas Tuchel replaced Frank Lampard.

This trip to Oakwell presents Tuchel with a chance to rotate his side in a month that sees Chelsea play seven games in three competitions.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Barnsley.


Thiago Silva

Status: Out
Type of injury: Hamstring
Possible return date: February 15 (vs. Newcastle United)

Thiago Silva injured his hamstring against Tottenham Hotspur last week and missed the win against Sheffield United as a result. The injury is not as bad as first feared, but the veteran centre-back has been ruled out of this cup match.


Timo Werner

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Leg
Possible return date: February 11 (vs. Barnsley)

Timo Werner sustained a dead leg at Bramall Lane and asked to be substituted off. The striker played down the severity of the injury after the game, but he will be assessed ahead of Thursday's trip to Yorkshire.


Kai Havertz

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Knock
Possible return date: February 11 (vs. Barnsley)

Kai Havertz limped out of training last week and played no part in the wins over Tottenham and Sheffield United. The attacking midfielder, who has one goal and two assists in 18 league games this term, remains a doubt.


Christian Pulisic

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Personal reasons
Possible return date: February 11 (vs. Barnsley)

Fan favourite Christian Pulisic was a surprise absentee from Chelsea's squad last time out. Tuchel revealed after the game that the United States international missed out for personal reasons, rendering him doubtful for this game with Barnsley.


CHELSEA'S SUSPENSION LIST

Chelsea have no players suspended for this showdown at Oakwell.
