Chelsea will return to action in the FA Cup on Sunday when they face Crystal Palace in the semi-finals.

The FA Cup is the last hope for the Blues to win a trophy this season, having been recently kicked out of the UCL by Real Madrid.

Ahead of the match against Crystal Palace at Wembley Stadium on Sunday evening, Chelsea coach Thomas Tuchel has revealed two players that will miss the match.

Tuchel said the likes of Ben Chilwell and Callum Hudson-Odoi would not feature against Crystal Palace.

The German made this public during his pre-match press conference on Friday.

Chelsea would be going into the match after losing 5-4 on aggregate to Real Madrid in the Champions League quarter-final stage in midweek.

“Romelu was back in training yesterday. Let’s see if he has any reaction or not,” Tuchel said.

“Except for Ben Chilwell and Callum Hudson-Odoi, everybody seems to be okay. We still have two more training sessions to go so fingers crossed it stays like this.”

Tuchel is likely to rotate his squad for the match.
