First off, the club has warned that N'Golo Kante's eagerly anticipated return this weekend may be premature. They stated that he "may not quite be ready to feature against his former club" after sustaining a hamstring injury against Tottenham.
Although he hasn't yet appeared on the field for Potter, he has recently started training with the first team and was observed on Thursday before the game. Armando Broja and Thiago Silva are both ruled out due to separate knee injuries in other positions.
After learning that he needs surgery to repair a ruptured cruciate ligament, Broja's season appears to be over while Silva is anticipated to miss the entire month of April with a six-week recovery period. Edouard Mendy, however, is "making progress" in his recovery and could return sooner after undergoing surgery for a fractured finger.
Cesar Azpilicueta is the last absentee to get a report. He was taken off the field on a stretcher in the defeat to Southampton, but the club claims he could have recovered from his concussion in time to play against Leicester.
Mason Mount, who was suspended for missing the Champions League victory, is back in the running elsewhere. Despite a recent lower abdomen problem that prevented him from playing in the team that defeated Leeds United last weekend, he returned to training on Thursday to get ready for the match against Leicester City.
Benoit Badiashile, David Fofana, and Noni Madueke, who are ineligible for the Champions League, as well as Mykhailo Mudryk, who was only able to serve as a substitute for both of Chelsea's recent victories, will all be vying for playing time.
