Patrick Vieria is set to receive a huge injury boost ahead of Crystal Palace’s FA Cup semi-final showdown against Chelsea on Sunday as Tyrick Mitchell is reportedly on course to be fit to face the Blues.
The 22-year-old England international went down in the 34th minute of Palace’s 2-1 defeat to Leicester City last Sunday, with Vieira confirming in his post-match press conference that he’d felt something in his calf.
That left Eagles fans sweating on his involvement in the club’s biggest game of the season this weekend when they take on Chelsea at Wembley for a place in the FA Cup Final, though according to the Daily Mail, Palace are hopeful Mitchell will be ready for Sunday’s game after resuming light training this week at Copers Cope.
