Chelsea Vs West Brom Team News
Chelsea Vs West Brom might look like another game on paper
that the home team will just cruise away with all three points, but it doesn’t
look so with their last encounter ending in a draw.
Both teams played out a 3-3 draw last time out which was during Frank Lampard
era and it wasn’t an easy task for them, but with Thomas Tuchel things might be
easy or worst today.
Their last five meetings in the English Premier League have
ended with the Blues winning four and draw one which was their last meeting
that ended with a 3-3 draw away from home.
Chelsea Vs West Brom Injuries
Update
As the game
between Chelsea Vs West Brom will be going down, we have some injuries update
from the camp of the Blues which involves some key players after coming back
from the International break.
First on the
list is NGolo Kante who is totally out of the game after picking up an injury
during France first game in their World Cup qualifiers and he might not be back
before Wednesday Champions League game.
Here Is What Tuchel Said About NGolo Kante Absent
‘With N’Golo,
we will have to be patient. Will he miss the Porto game? Yes, probably. He is
doing individual training and tomorrow’s game comes too soon for him and so he
can’t be with the squad.
‘After
tomorrow’s game, we have just three days to prepare [for Porto]. He has a
muscle injury, as we communicated with the national team.
So my
realistic approach is to think further ahead about Porto, maybe the second game
against Porto he could be available for.’

Thomas Tuchel’s side who haven’t lost a game against the Baggies in over their
last five meetings in the Premier League which the last one ended in a 3-3
draw.
Betting on a
direct win for Chelsea is probably what everyone should be about but mind u,
West Brom knows how to defend when they are on their best and we saw that
against Liverpool.
