Chelsea will be again without Antonio Rudiger against West Ham on Sunday.
Rudiger missed Wednesday’s 4-2 defeat to Arsenal with a groin injury and Thomas Tuchel has confirmed the defender remains sidelined.
Mateo Kovacic is also out due to the ankle injury he sustained against Crystal Palace in the FA Cup semi-final.
“No, for Sunday’s match they are not back,” said Tuchel on Friday. “Also no other injuries.”
Tuchel admitted he got his team selection and tactics wrong against Arsenal and the Chelsea boss is likely to make changes to his team for the West Ham game at Stamford Bridge.

Predicted Chelsea XI (3-4-3):
Mendy;
Azpilicueta, Silva, Sarr;
James, Loftus-Cheek, Kante, Alonso;
Mount, Havertz, Werner.
