EPL: Raheem Sterling, Cole Palmer banned for Chelsea vs Crystal Palace clash

Chelsea will be without Raheem Sterling and Cole Palmer for the visit of Crystal Palace next week in the Premier League.

The English duo received their fifth booking of the campaign during the 2-1 defeat at Wolves on Sunday.

This automatically triggers a one-match ban for players.

Nicolas Jackson also picked up his eighth yellow card of the season and will face a two-game suspension when he is booked for the 10th time.

Mario Lemina and Matt Doherty scored for the hosts, before Christopher Nkunku pulled one back for the Blues at the Molineux.

The result leaves Chelsea in 10th place with 22 points.
