Chelsea's No. 2 goalkeeper, Asmir Begovic, will likely be called upon once again for the Blues as first-choice 'keeper Thibaut Courtois has reportedly been sidelined with a knee injury picked up in training.
The Belgian shot-stopper is expected to miss Chelsea's next league match against Everton. Courtois is supposedly not dealing with cruciate ligament damage, though.
Still, Courtois could be facing an extended period on the mend. Manager Jose Mourinho is set to provide further details during a press conference Friday.
Begovic has already gotten the start for Chelsea after Courtois picked up a red card in a 2-2 draw with Swansea City to open the 2015-16 Premier League season.
