Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their first game back after lockdown as they visit relegation-threatened Aston Villa.

Chelsea return to Premier League action with a trip to face relegation-threatened Aston Villa on the weekend of June 19-21, and they will be thrust straight back into a battle for Champions League qualification.

Frank Lampard's side won just two of their final seven Premier League games before lockdown, a run of form which saw their lead over fifth-placed Manchester United slimmed to only three points.

However, the three-month stoppage has allowed a number of key players to return to fitness, with Tammy Abraham, Mateo Kovacic, Callum Hudson-Odoi, Christian Pulisic and N'Golo Kante among those to have shaken off problems.
