Champions League: Moses left behind

Victor Moses will not make his anticipated return from injury when Chelsea face Azerbaijani champions Qarabag in the Champions League tomorrow, starting from 1800 hours.

Manager Antonio Conte had hinted that the Nigeria international could be in the traveling party to Baku but the right wing-back has remained in the English capital to get in shape after recovering from a hamstring problem he suffered against Crystal Palace on October 14.

”Victor Moses trained with the first team before they traveled to Azerbaijan,” Chelsea expert CarefreeYouth, who watched Monday morning’s training session told allnigeriasoccer.com.

”He was was outside doing the ball work, passing etc, did the running and shooting drills.  I think he has an eighty percent chance of being back for Liverpool at the weekend.”

Meanwhile, Chelsea arrived in Baku around midnight ahead of the match day five clash at Baki Olimpiya Stadionu (Baku).

They held a closed door training session at Baksell Arena on Tuesday morning.
