The Blues returned to winning ways earlier today with a 3-2 win over Brighton & Hove Albion at Stamford Bridge. Enzo Fernandez was the star of the show with two goals.

They will be aiming for another victory at Old Trafford in midweek, but ahead of the game, the club have suffered a huge blow with Conor Gallagher suspended for the trip.

Gallagher has been a revelation for the Blues in the current campaign. He has been ever-present for the club in the centre of the park and has delivered several stand-out displays.

However, he won't be available for the much-awaited clash at United after receiving two yellow cards against Brighton . The Blues will however see the return of captain Reece James .

James picked up a red card of his own against Newcastle United last week. The England international is expected to return for the Blues' trip to Manchester in three days' time.
