Chelsea will be stepping on the mats of Turf Moor with Hazard’s name not being in the start list. The Belgian is sustaining a back injury and likely to miss the game this weekend.
The top-scorer of Premier League has been in rich vein of form and will surely be missed.
With 21 points out of possible 27, and no losses imbibed yet, Chelsea stand tall of Premier League table and will be travelling to Turf Moor on Sunday to keep their title charge running.
Maurizio Sarri may have lost his eminent forward, but unlike others, is in dilemma of having a lot of options.
Loftus Cheek though is the most certain import in for Hazard.
