Chelsea right-back Reece James is set to be absent until after the upcoming international break after suffering another injury setback, football.london understands.
Thomas Tuchel confirmed the blow in his pre-match press conference on Wednesday, revealing that the 22-year-old had hurt muscles in his right leg.
James had only just returned to action following a hamstring injury suffered at the end of December in their clash with Brighton at Stamford Bridge.
