Definitely out of action for Chelsea are Armando Broja and Thiago Silva as both recover from knee injuries. Potter then has doubts surrounding several players.

Midfielder Mason Mount has missed the previous two matches with an abdomen injury while striker Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang has had a problem with his back.
Raheem Sterling missed the win over Leicester at the weekend and he has since not been included in the England squad due to fitness concerns, while goalkeeper Edouard Mendy is back in training.
Skipper Cesar Azpilicueta needs to be cleared of concussion protocol after being stretchered off almost a month ago. Reece James is expected to be fit after missing the Leicester victory through illness.
