Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel says he's concerned for the health of his players as they prepare to face Brighton in the Premier League this evening.
Romelu Lukaku and Callum Hudson-Odoi will be asked to play a second Premier League game in 48 hours just days after coming out of Covid-19 isolation.
Tuchel does not understand why his call to re-introduce five substitutes has not received additional backing:
Kick off at Stamford Bridge is at 7.30pm.
From 8.15pm, leaders Manchester City are away to Brentford.
