Cole Palmer was set to return to Chelsea for their 7:30am ET visit to Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday but the 23-year-old's house had other ideas.

Cole Palmer suffered a freak toe injury and his Chelsea team-mate Marc Cucurella has offered extra detail on exactly how it happened.

Having Palmer available would be a huge boost, and The Guardian have reported Chelsea are hopeful he’ll hand them a boost by declaring himself fit. Palmer has made just four appearances in all competitions, and having him back in the match day squad would provide a major boost.
