Moses Doubtful For Stoke City Clash

Super Eagles winger, Victor Moses could be left behind as Chelsea travel to face ‘stubborn’ Stoke City at the Britannia Stadium in Saturday’s Premier League.

Moses has remain one of Chelsea manager, Antonio Conte’s most impressive players this season, having notched up 26 appearances, scoring four goals in the process.

The former Wigan star was substituted in the second half after suffering a slight injury in the Blues’ 1-0 win over Manchester United in Monday’s FA Cup quarter final clash at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea are 10 points clear at the top of the table after losing just once since the middle of September, and Antonio Conte will relish the opportunity to try to become the first man to leave the bet365 Stadium with three points in a league fixture since November 19.

Saturday’s fixture represents the 99th time these two sides have met in a competitive fixture, with Stoke claiming 30 victories in comparison to 47 wins for Chelsea.

However, Stoke have had the better of the last four fixtures, losing just once, although Chelsea did claim a 4-2 triumph at Stamford Bridge on New Year’s Eve.
