Chelsea duo return to partial team training

Chelsea duo Ben Chilwell and Carney Chukwuemeka have returned to partial team training ahead of the Premier League clash against Brighton & Hove Albion on the road.

The Blues have made good progress over the past few games and they are currently seventh in the table after a 3-2 comeback win over Nottingham Forest at City Ground.

The club are only goal difference behind Newcastle United in the standings. With two games left, they have a good chance to leapfrog the Magpies into a Europa League spot.

Ahead of the midweek trip to the Amex Stadium, the Blues have been handed a boost with both Chilwell and Chukwuemeka returning to partial team training after respective injuries.

It is unlikely that the pair will be involved against the Seagulls, but they could make an appearance in the final game of the season against Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge.

The Blues are currently on a three-match winning league streak and should fancy their chances of beating Brighton & Bournemouth.
