Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has issued an injury update on Malo Gusto ahead of facing Leicester City.
Gusto went off injured midway through the first half of Chelsea’s 2-1 Europa Conference League win against Copenhagen on Thursday night.
Maresca said he expected Gusto to be available for Sunday’s Premier League meeting at Stamford Bridge against the Foxes (2pm).
Asked about his injury after the final whistle, Maresca said: "He's okay, he's better. They just told me he can be ready for Sunday's game, so hopefully we can have him for Sunday's game."
Chelsea will face Copenhagen in the second leg of their last-16 Conference League tie next week, but Maresca insists his full focus is now on his former club Leicester.
“The main game for us is Sunday’s game at home and we need our fans for 100 minutes behind the team and pushing the team,” he added.
“If we can win against Leicester on Sunday, we can do one more step to finishing in the Champions League, (whether) top four or top five, I do not know.”
