Chelsea manager Frank Lampard has provided a fitness update on two of his key attacking midfielders.

Ross Barkley and Mason Mount are unlikely to feature for the Blues as they face Crystal Palace in the Premier League this weekend.

Barkley is almost certainly out, while Mount is a serious doubt.

Lampard spoke about both players during his press conference ahead of the game.

"Ross has an ongoing issue, so he's not in the squad for tomorrow," Lampard said.

"It's a conversation I'll have with Gareth or Steve [Holland, England assistant] with Ross and everyone to see how it pans out for him over the next 10 days. I'm not sure on that one, but he won't be in our squad.

"With Mason, he's in the squad, and we're giving him another 24 hours. We'll make a call on that one in the morning [Saturday]."
