Diego Costa fit to play, Loic Remy is back and Eden Hazard miss out

Chelsea manager Guus Hiddink has confirmed that Diego Costa is fit to face West Bromwich Albion tomorrow night, but Loic Remy might be short and Eden Hazard isn’t available for selection.

There were some doubts over Costa after he limped off during the 2-0 win over Scunthorpe United on Sunday, but Hiddink has given him the green-light to play tomorrow evening at Stamford Bridge.

As for Remy and Hazard, they’ve been out of action over the past few weeks, and Hiddink has confirmed that the Frenchman is back training with the group, but the Belgian is still sidelined.

Injury Latest

Hiddink said: “Costa is ok, he got a knock but the day after the game he was keen to get back on the pitch.

“Remy is joining the group. The last two days he practised with us.

“Hazard was on the pitch today with the physios but he is still not available.

“We want to have him fit. It’s better a little bit late than too early.”
