Chelsea are back in Premier League action on Saturday evening as they face an Aston Villa side with hopes of finishing in the top half. The Blues are currently one place above their opponents this weekend but will end the day in the bottom half if they were to lose.
Despite a mini-recovery from Graham Potter before the international break the 2-2 draw with Everton raised yet more questions of him and his squad. This game offers a chance to quieten the critics for now but it will have to be done with a side far from match fit.
The fortnight away has allowed for several players to continue recovering from short, medium and long-term injuries but those away with their country have also come back in far from the ideal condition.
