Chelsea will be aiming to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they welcome Brentford to Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon.

The Blues beat Fulham and Burnley in the league before drawing 2-2 with Arsenal last weekend, throwing away a two-goal advantage against the Gunners to share the points.

Mauricio Pochettino's side have made an underwhelming start to the 2023-24 campaign, picking up just 12 points from nine matches to sit in 10th position in the table.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Brentford, who are 14th in the division on 10 points.
