On the eve of hosting LOSC for the knockout stages of the Champions League, Chelsea may not have several of its players.
In addition to Mason Mount, injured in the final of the Club World Cup and almost forfeited, three other players are uncertain for the match once morest Lille. Absent at the last minute this Saturday in the league, Cesar Azpilicueta and Callum Hudson-Odoi suffer respectively from the groin and the Achilles tendon. Despite everything, Thomas Tuchel hopes to be able to count on the two players. Regarding the right side Reece James, injured since the end of 2021, he should resume training this week but should not apply for a starting place on Tuesday.
Tuchel confirmed that Azpilicueta suffered a groin injury and Hudson-Odoi has an Achilles issue. He hopes both are back for Tuesday vs Lille. Mount highly unlikely to make it and is aiming for the cup final instead. #CFC
