Diego Costa: Could miss Newcastle match

Costa suffered a broken nose during training Thursday and is questionable for Saturday's match against Newcastle, manager Guus Hiddink said Friday.

Analysis:

Costa did not train with the squad Friday, as he was getting fitted for a protective mask. If he's able to get comfortable with the mask, then he's likely to play, but it's certainly something that could hinder him in the early going. If Costa does not start, Loic Remy is likely next in line.
