Chelsea duo Hazard & Costa fit for Arsenal clash


Eden Hazard is available for Chelsea’s clash with Arsenal
on Sunday.

The Belgium international hasn’t featured for the Premier
League champions since their 3-0 win at Crystal Palace on
January 3 due to a groin injury.

But Guus Hiddink has confirmed that Hazard returned to
training earlier this week and is now fit to face the Premier
League leaders at the Emirates Stadium.

"In the last two days he [Hazard] was in full training. He's
available," the Chelsea coach told reporters.

"We have to be careful as he's fallen into injuries recently.
I'm not sure whether he can play a full 90 minutes."

The Chelsea boss has also confirmed that Diego Costa is in
contention to play despite being taken to hospital for scans
on a shin injury after last Saturday’s 3-3 draw with Everton.

Meanwhile, Branislav Ivanovic has signed a one-year
contract extension.
