Injury updates on David Luiz and Tiemoue Bakayoko

David Luiz and Tiemoue Bakayoko were limped out of Chelsea training sessions earlier in the week but neither are doubts to face West Brom next weekend, as per a report from Oliver Harbord of Football London.

There was a worry that the duo could be out for a long period when they were spotted making premature exits from the training sessions but it appears that both will be fit enough for selection.

However, whether the duo get picked to play is another matter. Luiz was dropped Antonio Conte, who criticised the Brazilian’s attitude, with him preferring to play Andreas Christensen.

Bakayoko has had a mixed start to his Chelsea career but with Ngolo Kante and Danny Drinkwater returning to full fitness, he could find himself watching on from the sidelines for the game against Tony Pulis’ side.

However, Chelsea have been bitten by the injury bug once too often this season so they’ll be glad to have received positive news on Luiz and Bakayoko.
