Chelsea Injury Update: Ben Chilwell And Denis Zakaria (Sports Illustrated)

Updates on the injuries of Ben Chilwell and Denis Zakaria after yesterdays Champions League game against Dinamo Zagreb.

The player will need to have a scan on the hamstring to determine the length of his time out. With the World Cup so close around the corner, the nightmare for every player is to get injured and be ruled out. Denis Zakaria also limped off last night, but his injury situation has been described as fine. When he pulls up like that it’s a concern. "It's a hamstring. [Ben](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ben-chilwell/profil/spieler/316125) [ Chilwell ](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ben-chilwell/profil/spieler/316125)and [Denis Zakaria](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/denis-zakaria/profil/spieler/334526) both coming off the pitch with injuries, one certainly seeming a lot more serious than the other.

Chelsea star Mason Mount shares Denis Zakaria theory after two ... (Daily Express)

Mason Mount was one of the first to receive the bad news from Chelsea left-back Ben Chilwell.

He deserves man of the match more than me, and he scored as well." The trio of games kicks off on Sunday with a crunch London derby against Arsenal, before an EFL Cup tie against Manchester City and a final league game at St James' Park. Mount was awarded Man of the Match after the final whistle but the England star claimed that his Swiss team-mate may have been a more worthy choice. Inter Milan and Paris Saint-Germain are among them, with the draw set to take place on Monday. However, amid a change of management he had slipped way down the pecking order and hadn't even been used from the bench until Wednesday evening. He had to be assisted off the pitch and he was later spotted leaving Stamford Bridge on crutches.

Why is Chelsea vs Arsenal kicking off at 12pm on a Sunday? (The Athletic)

A couple of Premier League games this season have already raised eyebrows among supporters as their teams have had to play at times that aren't familiar as ...

With no more European football until February, there are no plans for any of the other confirmed televised games to be played in the midday Sunday slot. In this particular scenario, the game has had to be moved to the early Sunday slot because of Arsenal’s Europa League commitments. After being beaten by Liverpool on a Wednesday evening back in March, Arsenal had to prepare themselves for the early weekend trip to Aston Villa. Instead, they get an extra day to recover and prepare with the game being played, and shown, on Sunday instead. The weekend usually kicks off at 12.30pm on a Saturday with BT Sport having the rights to that particular slot. On weekends that succeed European midweeks, there will be more games on a Sunday which, this season, involve Arsenal, Manchester United and West Ham United — the three English sides that play their European matches on Thursdays.
