Chelsea return to Premier League action at the weekend as they play host to Burnley at Stamford Bridge.
Having recorded seven points from four games in the top flight over the Christmas and New Year period, Chelsea made progress in the FA Cup on Sunday courtesy of a 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest.
However, Frank Lampard is expected to revert back to what he perceives to be his strongest starting lineup after making nine changes for the meeting with the Championship side.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up their latest injury and suspension news ahead of the showdown in West London.
Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Buttock
Possible return date: January 11 (vs. Burnley)
Lampard revealed last week that Alonso has been absent in recent weeks due to an injury to the top of his glute. However, with the issue only being described as minor, the left-back may return this weekend.
Status: Out
Type of injury: Achilles
Possible return date: Unknown
Despite appearing to be making progress in his recovery from a serious Achilles injury, no date has been pencilled in for Loftus-Cheek's return to competitive action.
CHELSEA'S SUSPENSION LIST
Chelsea have no players suspended for this contest.
