Chelsea handed fitness boost for Man Utd game
Chelsea have been handed a fitness boost ahead of their Premier League clash against Manchester United tomorrow.
The Blues recently played out a frustrating goalless draw at Brentford where Conor Gallagher was substituted after just 15 minutes.
The England star asked to be taken off as he was feeling ill, but he has recovered in time to return to team training today.
Speaking in his pre-match press conference, Potter confirmed that Gallagher is in contention and will be assessed before the game.
Chelsea are unbeaten under the guidance of Potter, but they face a huge test tomorrow against the Red Devils at Stamford Bridge.
It won't be a straightforward game in any way. The Blues have failed to win any of the previous eight league matches between them.
The last four league outings have ended in statemates. This has included two goalless draws. It could be another tight affair in London.
Potter will be hoping to get the better of Erik ten Hag's United, having already done so with Brighton & Hove Albion this term.
