Chelsea are back in action on Thursday evening when they square off against Legia Warsaw in the second leg of their Conference League quarter-final.

The Blues are already on the brink of progressing through to the last four having secured a 3-0 win from the opening fixture last week.

Since then, though, Enzo Maresca has witnessed his side be held to a 2-2 draw by Ipswich Town in the Premier League, a result that has left the club down in sixth position in the standings.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's injury and suspension news ahead of welcoming the Polish giants to West London.

Wesley Fofana

Status: Out

Type of injury: Thigh

Possible return date: Next season

Enzo Maresca has confirmed that Wesley Fofana will be sidelined for the remainder of the season owing to his latest fitness problem, this time another hamstring injury.

Romeo Lavia

Status: Out

Type of injury: Muscle

Possible return date: April 20 (vs. Fulham)

While Maresca has hinted that Romeo Lavia could soon be available again after his most recent injury issue, the Belgium international is ineligible for this contest.

Omari Kellyman

Status: Out

Type of injury: Hamstring

Possible return date: Next season

Omari Kellyman took to his social media accounts on March 18 to confirm that he has suffered a season-ending hamstring injury, with Chelsea looking to reintroduce the youngster into the first-team thinking next campaign.

Marc Guiu

Status: Major doubt

Type of injury: Hamstring

Possible return date: April 17 (vs. Legia Warsaw)
