Chelsea will be without John Terry for the UEFA Super Cup clash with Atletico Madrid as the Blues skipper is out suspended.

Terry was handed a two-match ban following his sending off against Barcelona in the Champions League semi-final second leg at the Nou Camp and will serve the final game of it this evening. The skipper has traveled with the rest of the squad but just like in the Final against Bayern Munich, he will have to watch from the sidelines. Marko Marin is the only injury problem for boss Roberto Di Matteo as he continues to struggle with a hamstring injury, but the Italian is likely to shuffle his pack even though it is a game he is desperate to win. The Italian has said he will take the game very seriously so the Blues are likely to field a strong side against the Europa League winners. Midfielder Yossi Benayoun did not travel with the rest of the squad as he is speaking to two Premier League clubs over a possible loan move, while Florent Malouda has also stayed back while he tries to sort out a move away.
