Liverpool aren't the only ones dealing with an injury crisis ahead of the Carabao Cup final. Their opponents, Chelsea, are also dealing with a number of problems in the build up to the match.
Handily beaten 4-1 at Anfield earlier this month, Chelsea bounced back and showed their strength with a 1-1 draw at Manchester City, who needed a late equaliser from Rodri to rescue a point.
But as they gear up for their big game against Jurgen Klopp's side, Chelsea will still be down several key players due to injury. Let's take a look at who's out for now:

Jurgen Klopp may be forced to scrap Liverpool rule as injury crisis gets worse
Thiago Silva
Injury: Groin.
Captain Thiago Silva was forced off in the Crystal Palace match due to injury. The Brazilian star was ruled unfit for the match against City by boss Mauricio Pochettino, but he just might be back in time for the trip to Wembley.
Here's what Pochettino has said: "Yes, minor injury but he is out for tomorrow [vs City]. He is not available. He's not available. After this, we need to assess game by game."
Return: Imminent
Carney Chukwuemeka
Ankle injury
Carney Chukwuemeka has hurt his ankle again in training and might not play in the final. Pochettino said, "Carney Chukwuemeka suffered a twisted ankle two days ago and he is out." It's unclear when he will return.
Robert Sanchez
Knee injury
Pochettino said: "Robert Sanchez is available. It is good news. Yes, it is always good to recover a player and he was playing a lot. To be available again is a good thing for the team."
He therefore could play in the game against Liverpool on Sunday, February 25.
