Fit for bench
Chilwell (undisclosed) is on the bench for Sunday's match against Angers.
Analysis: Chilwell is back in the team despite some injury complaints, with the defender only fit enough for the bench. The hope will be that he can finish the season in a starting role next week, as he has started in 19 of his 10 appearances this season.
Doubtful to face Angers
Chilwell is doubtful for Sunday's match against Angers, according to manager Gary O'Neil, per Jonathan Helbling of Alsa Sports. "Ben, probably not."
Analysis: Chilwell is looking to be a no-go for Sunday, as the defender is suffering from an undisclosed injury that leaves him doubtful. This comes after he missed their last match as well, not seeing the field in their past three league games. He has been serving at left-back when an option, with Abdoul Ouattara likely to start there again, with Chillwell unlikely to play.
Fit for cup play
Chilwell (calf) is an option for play again, according to manager Gary O'Neil, per Dorian Faucherand of Alsa Sports.
Analysis: Chilwell will not miss any more time after a small calf injury was enough to halt him over the weekend, as the defender is now fit to face Nice in the Coupe de France. This will give the club back a starting defender as the end of the season nears, typically their top option at left-back. The hope will be that he can remain fit for the final few games, as he has missed out on three of their past six games through injury.
