Chelsea’s Eden Hazard to miss Manchester United clash?
Chelsea attacker Eden Hazard has emerged as a doubt for Monday’s Premier League showdown with Manchester United at Old Trafford.
The Belgian made his return from a hip injury off the bench during his side’s 2-2 draw with Watford at Stamford Bridge this afternoon, and was on the end of a heavy challenge that won the Blues a late penalty, which was subsequently missed by Oscar.
Hazard was seen limping out of Stamford Bridge following the match, casting doubt over whether he will be fit for the trip to Old Trafford in just two days’ time.
Interim Chelsea boss Guus Hiddink will also be without Diego Costa for the match after the striker picked up his fifth yellow card of the season against the Hornets, while also scoring two goals.
Monday’s match could be a make-or-break one for under-pressure manager Louis van Gaal, whose Man Utd side fell to another defeat at the hands of Stoke City earlier today
