Branislav Ivanovic: Could miss three weeks
Ivanovic is expected to be sidelined for three weeks because of the hamstring injury he suffered while playing for Serbia last Thursday against Albania, the Daily Mail reports.
Analysis:
Given Chelsea's defensive woes, Ivanovic has been a relatively poor fantasy option this season. Cesar Azpilicueta, who has been starting on the left side since the beginning of last season, will likely move over to his more natural right back side, while Baba Rahman could get his first Premier League start.
