Chelsea star Eden Hazard hasn’t played for the club since the 2-2 draw against Manchester United.
The Belgian has been in impressive form this season with seven goals and three assists in nine Premier League games. However, he picked up a slight knock in the stalemate against United and Sarri didn’t risk him in our ties against BATE Borisov and Burnley.
Chelsea made light work of the pair and our next game is against Frank Lampard’s Derby County in the Carabao Cup.
Our assistant manager Gianfranco Zola was speaking to the media before the game and claimed the Belgian could be fit for the weekend’s game against Crystal Palace, but isn’t sure about the game against the Rams.
On Hazard’s injury, Zola says he doesn’t think he will be involved tomorrow but it’s looking good for the weekend. #CFCvDerby

The Eagles performed well against Arsenal as they earned a point last week. They won’t be pushovers and having Hazard in the team could make the difference.
Many Chelsea fans were excited about the star’s return and shared their reactions on Twitter.
Back in my fantasy team he goes then

Great news, probably not in need of his services tonight but we need him on the weekend. I hope he recovers soon.
