Chelsea will return to action this weekend when they face Newcastle United at the St. James Park.

The Blues will, however, once again be with their two strikers, Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner, who were unavailable during their last weekend game vs Norwich, as well as their midweek game vs Southampton in the Carabao League.

Werner and Lukaku picked up injuries during the Blues game vs Malmo in the UEFA champions league.

America international Christian Pulisic has rejoined the rest of the team during training, having been out of the team for some weeks owing to injuries.

However, ahead of Chelsea’s match vs Newcastle United, coach Thomas Tuchel has revealed when Lukaku, Werner and Pulisic will start for Chelsea.

Tuchel revealed that Lukaku and Werner are not likely to play for Chelsea until after the international break.

He, however, stressed that Pulisic, on the other will likely start for Chelsea when they face Burnley.
