Chelsea suffer double injury blow ahead of Burnley clash

The Blues have had a tough time with injuries this season and they have suffered another setback this weekend. The club are already without Romeo Lavia for the rest of the campaign and they have now confirmed more bad news. Goalkeeper Robert Sanchez and defender Trevoh Chalobah have been ruled out of the meeting against the Clarets. Chelsea should be clear favourites to beat Vincent Kompany 's side this weekend regardless of the double blow. The Blues are currently 11th in the standings and they need a huge turnaround to qualify for European football. Of course, they can also make the Europa League group stage by winning the FA Cup, but that seems a difficult task. They face a tough challenge against Manchester City in the semi-final of the competition at Wembley next month. If they were to beat the Cityzens, they are most likely to face Manchester United in the final showdown in London.
