Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash with Liverpool.
Sports Mole

Chelsea will aim to maintain their 100% start to the Premier League season when they make the journey to take on Liverpool on Saturday evening.

The Blues followed up their 3-0 win over Crystal Palace with a resounding 2-0 success at Arsenal over the weekend, with Romelu Lukaku and Reece James among the goals in North London.

Thomas Tuchel's side are already being tipped as genuine title contenders with two wins and two clean sheets to boast from a stellar start to the campaign, but a trip to Anfield will prove to be a true test of their mettle.

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


Ruben Loftus-Cheek

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Coronavirus
Possible return date: August 28 (vs. Liverpool)

Ruben Loftus-Cheek returned a positive coronavirus test before the opening game of the season with Palace. The midfielder should finish his self-isolation period before the trip to Anfield but is unlikely to be considered for selection either way.


Christian Pulisic

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

Christian Pulisic was also revealed to be COVID-positive before the trip to Arsenal and will not be ready in time to face Liverpool.


CHELSEA'S SUSPENSION LIST

Chelsea have no suspension issues for this clash.
