Chelsea FC vs Derby County - Hazard to sit out as Lampard returns to Stamford Bridge
Posted Tuesday, October 30, 2018 by PA
Forward Eden Hazard is expected to miss Chelsea’s Carabao Cup fourth-round tie with Derby on Wednesday with a back problem.
Winger Pedro (illness) and striker Olivier Giroud (leg) are doubtful.
Ethan Ampadu (knee) has returned to training but is unlikely to feature.
Derby have been granted permission by Chelsea to select on-loan pair Mason Mount and Fikayo Tomori.
Mount limped off with a knock in Saturday’s 1-1 Championship draw at Middlesbrough but it appears he will be fit, with Rams boss and former Chelsea player Frank Lampard having said he has the same group to pick from as he did for that last contest.
Craig Bryson (calf), George Evans (knee), Joe Ledley (hip) and Marcus Olsson (knee) were not involved in the game at the Riverside.
