Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has admitted that Diego Costa could feature against Manchester United on Sunday.
Costa has been troubled by a hamstring injury since joining the Blues, while he also picked up a viral infection earlier this week which caused an overnight stay in hospital.
Mourinho is hoping Costa will be fit enough to face the Red Devils and has claimed the Spaniard has a "little chance" of featuring.
"He has a chance, he has a little chance", the Portuguese told a press conference.

"Everything happened to him. He was obviously injured and he had to go to hospital with a viral situation that we didn't manage to resolve without him being in the hospital for one night."
Mourinho also confirmed that Loic Remy, who suffered an injury against NK Maribor, is certainly out of the game.
"I would say two weeks, three weeks [he is out for]. So Remy is out."
