Chelsea suffer fresh injury blow after West Ham win

Gittens injured vs West Ham

Chelsea have suffered a fresh injury blow ahead of the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final against Arsenal on Tuesday night.



The Blues registered a stunning 3-2 comeback win over West Ham United in the Premier League on Sunday.

The club were 2-0 down at the break, but they made a terrific comeback to beat the Hammers at Stamford Bridge.

The London giants now face the Gunners in the second leg of the League Cup semi-final on Tuesday. They have everything to do, considering they are trailing 3-2 after the first leg at Stamford Bridge earlier this month.

Ahead of the game, the Blues will be without the services of Jamie Gittens, who sustained an early injury against the Hammers. He was replaced by Joao Pedro, who provided a vital assist in the second half.

Chelsea were far from their best in the opening half against Nuno Santo's side, but they made amends after the interval to get out of jail. The Blues have moved to fourth in the table with the derby win.
