Chelsea injury, suspension list: Team news for Premier League match vs Man City

Jorginho and David Luiz are expected to return to Chelsea's starting line-up for Saturday's visit of Premier League leaders Manchester City.

Blues boss Maurizio Sarri reported no serious injuries ahead of the clash and is expected to restore his first-choice line-up after Wednesday's loss at Wolves, a second defeat in three league games.

Mateo Kovacic could start in midfield and Olivier Giroud could come in up front.

"At the moment we have no serious injuries," said the Chelsea boss.

"Every player will be able to play... it's a very difficult match against maybe the best team in Europe.

"It's impossible to beat them in a long period, but in a match everything can happen."

Provisional squad: Kepa, Caballero, Rudiger, Alonso, Fabregas, Jorginho, Kante, Barkley, Hazard, Pedro, Kovacic, Giroud, Zappacosta, Willian, Cahill, Christensen, Azpilicueta, Morata, Luiz, Emerson Palmieri, Loftus-Cheek, Hudson-Odoi, Ampadu, Bulka.
