N'Golo Kante is ruled out of the FA Cup tie against Luton Town
According to the Express, Chelsea boss Frank Lampard fears that star midfielder N’Golo Kante will miss the English Premier League clash against Crystal Palace.
A perfect night against Watford was hampered by the hamstring injury sustained by the Frenchman. Although we lead Manchester United in the top-4 race, the injury left a sour taste in our mouth.
“He’s got a small hamstring injury so we will see how that goes.”
A dominant midfielder, Kante’s experience will be crucial in our remaining few games. The competition for the top four is heating up while we also have the FA Cup semifinals against Manchester United to come.
The biggest games demand the best players. Kante has had rough luck with injuries this season but will hopefully not be out for long. He does, however, look likely to miss the clash against Crystal Palace.
“But I’m guessing it will be a problem for Palace on Tuesday.”
Thankfully for us, Palace themselves are in the midst of an injury crisis as they struggle to put points on the board. This can also give Lampard and opportunity to bring Jorginho back into the line-up.
The Italian has been conspicuous by his absence since the restart. Having featured in 26 of our 29 Premier League games prior to the suspension, his current absence is all the more baffling.
Another player who could come in is youngster Billy Gilmour. The 19-year-old came on for Kante against Watford and could do the same against Palace.
Chelsea cannot afford to drop any more points. Manchester United are hot on our heels and have discovered a rich vein of form.
With Leicester also appearing to have rediscovered their best, Lampard will be keen to win all the games that are left.
We still have our fate in our own hands. Throwing it away will risk the good work done this season.
