The official Chelsea team news for Thursday night's Premier League match against Manchester United has been announced.Chelsea is now in third place, seven points ahead of fifth-placed Tottenham Hotspur. The Blues are very certain to qualify for the Champions League, and a win at Old Trafford would bring them within four points of cementing their spot in the top four.
Thomas Tuchel's side will be missing Ben Chilwell, Mateo Kovacic, Ross Barkley, and Callum Hudson-Odoi, who haven't won in the north west since 2013.
"Kova, Ben Chilwell, and Callum will all be out for the time being." "Tuchel confirmed the news on Wednesday. "Ross Barkley is also sick and won't be in the team." Tuchel will make a late judgment on whether Antonio Rudiger and Reece James are available for selection after they returned to training ahead of the Man United match.
Andreas Christensen, meanwhile, has been ill since suffering stomach cramps prior to the win over West Ham."Toni was in training yesterday, as was Reece James," Tuchel said on Tuesday. Another training is on the way. Hopefully, they will be able to complete the course and give us the go-ahead. We're hoping they'll be able to make the squad and play tomorrow.
"The same goes for Andreas; we'll have to re-examine him." He was ill to his stomach. Today I'll returned to the training ground."
