Gusto, Delap, Pedro, Guiu: Latest Chelsea team news vs Sunderland in Premier League

Enzo Maresca has several selection decisions to make for Chelsea’s Premier League clash against Sunderland.
Chelsea are starting to gather momentum following a run of four victories in a row in all competitions, including big league victories over Liverpool and Nottingham Forest.
Sunderland visit Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon having made a positive start to their top-flight campaign following their promotion, with Regis le Bris’ side level on points with the Blues after eight games.
Maresca has been required to navigate through Chelsea’s schedule in the league, Champions League and Carabao Cup whilst battling with selection issues, enforced through injuries and suspensions.
It sees Levi Colwill, Benoit Badiashile, Dario Essugo and Cole Palmer still sidelined and unavailable for selection.
Malo Gusto will play no part in Saturday’s fixture due to picking up two yellow cards against Nottingham Forest last weekend, and will therefore serve his one-match ban.
Joao Pedro was not available for Chelsea against Ajax in the Champions League in midweek because of suspension. He is available for the league meeting and expected to lead the line.
Maresca believes the Brazilian is better suited to playing alongside a natural number nine, hinting Marc Guiu, who was recalled from his loan spell at Sunderland in the summer, could be handed an opportunity in attack.
