Palmer set for Europe return as Chelsea face Copenhagen

Cole Palmer could make his first appearance for Chelsea in Europe since August when they face Copenhagen in the first leg of their Uefa Conference League last-16 tie on Thursday.

The England forward played in the qualifying round but was left out of the group stage to manage his workload.

Palmer, 22, scored 14 goals in the first half of the season but has not scored in Chelsea's last seven games in all competitions.

Blues boss Enzo Maresca confirmed he could feature in Denmark on Thursday, and is not concerned by his recent goal drought.
