The English Premier League leaders might not be facing a tough opponent in Crystal Palace this week, but the amount of players that are injured on Chelsea's roster is a bit harrowing for fans either way. Recent signing and star goal-scorer Diego Costa is out about three weeks with a hamstring injury while Didier Drogba and Andre Schurrle could also sit this week. This could be Crystal Palace's chance to upset the leaders, so make sure you check out the free online live stream link below to watch the game!
While this hamstring injury has many Chelsea fans worried about Costa, coach Jose Mourinho didn't comment on the situation. In fact, he's saying that Diego is "strong" this week, admitting he gave the Spanish star along with César Azpilicueta and Cesc Fàbregas some time off after international play.
"I gave them two days off, Monday and Tuesday, so they had to report to train on Wednesday at 3pm," he said. "And Diego was here Monday at 9am. So you can imagine how strong he was to be here at 9am on Monday."
Mourinho did that the team's injury list is long, but he didn't seem too worried about the Crystal Palace match. Should he be worried?
