Chelsea expecting new double injury boost for Man City FA Cup semi-final

Share this

Chelsea is looking forward to having Axel Disasi and Raheem Sterling back for their big match against Manchester City in the FA Cup this weekend. Levi Colwill might also join them if he passes a fitness test before the game on Saturday.

These three players could really help Mauricio Pochettino’s team. In their last game, Chelsea had to play without 10 players and still managed to win 6-0 against Everton.

Disasi played really well in their last match against City in February, and he might even start this time. Sterling, who used to play for City, scored in that game and played amazingly.

Sterling might not start this weekend because he had food poisoning, but he’s recovering. However, recently he’s been on the bench more often, with players like Mykhailo Mudryk and Noni Madueke taking his place.

Colwill might not be fully fit to start but could be on the bench. He’s been working hard to recover from a toe injury he got in March.

Enzo Fernandez might also come back, but it depends on whether Chelsea decides if he needs surgery for a hernia problem. If he does, he’ll be out for a few more weeks.

Ben Chilwell made a late appearance in the last game and helped set up a goal. He’s eager to start on Saturday, but the coach might save him for the game against Arsenal on Tuesday.

Goalkeeper Robert Sanchez might also return to the bench after missing the last game because of illness.

Even though Chelsea’s options are getting better, they’ll still be missing some key players like Reece James, Christopher Nkunku, Romeo Lavia, Wesley Fofana, and Lesley Ugochuwku against City.
