Chelsea are set to miss out on the services of their top marksman Diego Costa, as they prepare for the match against newly crowned Premier League champions Leicester City.
Costa is suffering from a hamstring injury that had kept him out of Chelsea’s midweek draw against Liverpool at Anfield. Blues manager Guus Hiddink even went on to say that the 27 year old might be doubtful for the Euro 2016 coming up next month.
“He [Costa] needs a good rest and with training he might be fit for the Euros but I’m not sure,” Hiddink was quoted as saying on Chelsea’s official website.
Right back Branislav Ivanovic is also a doubtful case with a groin injury while captain John Terry will miss what could be his last match for the club, as he is suspended after picking up a double booking against Sunderland last weekend.
However, star man Eden Hazard, who has been suffering from several groin and hamstring injuries this season, seems to have leaped back into form in the match against Liverpool and is expected to play.
“After a splendid season before he’s [Hazard] had a difficult season, falling back into injuries, being close to good appearances and then falling back again,” said Hiddink.
