Chelsea Receive Mixed Injury News Ahead Of Man Utd Clash
West London giants Chelsea have received mixed injury news ahead of their all-important Premier League clash with Manchester United billed for the Theatre of Dreams this weekend.
Manchester United host Chelsea in what promises to be a mouthwatering encounter that will go a long way in deciding the destination of the last Champions League spot.
As it stands, Manchester City, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur are expected to fill the first three spots, leaving the fourth and final Champions League position for three teams.
Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United will fight for the final position.
Ahead of the Manchester United game on Sunday evening, Italian tactician Maurizio Sarri told reporters that one of his key players is doubtful for the game.
French World Cup winner N’Golo Kante was subbed off in the first half of Monday night’s game with Burnley as Chelsea played out a 2-2 draw with the Clarets.
Kante sustained a back injury before he was replaced by Croatian World Cup star Mateo Kovacic and Sarri thinks he would miss the game against Manchester United.
Sarri and Chelsea, however, expect Antonio Rudiger to be fit to take his place in the Chelsea starting XI after two weeks out with a minor knee injury sustained during the 2-0 defeat at Liverpool earlier this month.
