Chelsea vs Everton latest injury news as 10 players ruled out


Chelsea are back in action on Saturday when they face a tough-to-beat Everton side in the early game. The Blues’ tough run-in continues here after their big win over Fulham, needing to produce a very good run of form between now and the end of the season to finish in the top five and secure Champions League football.
The Toffees will be pleased with the season they have managed, particularly after the arrival of David Moyes, and they will feel they can hold anyone on their current form, losing only two of their last 13 league games. Ahead of another huge game for Chelsea, we have rounded up all the latest injury news surrounding both teams.

Mangala is out for the season and beyond due to a serious knee injury. Moyes said in January: “Mangala will go back. I think we're waiting for the surgeon to clear it. I think he will be operated on in France, as far as we know.”
Dominic Calvert-Lewin - Out
Calvert-Lewin is hoping to return before the end of the season. Moyes has said: “Dominic is out on the grass and is training well. I think we have another three weeks before we can start talking about him getting back into full-time training or games.”
Jesper Lindstrom - Out
Moyes has confirmed that Lindstrom’s season is over. He said: “Unfortunately, Jesper had a hernia operation yesterday, and that will rule him out for probably most of the season now. So that's disappointing.”
Armando Broja - Out (Ineligible)
Broja cannot face his parent club.
James Tarkowski - Out
Tarkowski’s season is over, with Moyes saying: “[We just know] that he's got a hamstring injury. It was quite obvious for everybody to see. So, obviously, we'll assess it during the week, and we'll see exactly how we are.”
