Diego Costa suffered a bruised tibia in Saturday's draw with
Everton, but it remains to be seen how much time the Chelsea striker
might miss.
Costa was sent for a scan on the shin after leaving
the field at Stamford Bridge and Press Association Sport understands the
results show no fracture and just bruising.
But it is too soon
to say whether Costa, who was injured when challenging Leighton Baines
in the second half, will be able to feature in Sunday's Premier League
clash at Arsenal.
The 27-year-old Brazil-born Spain international reported for
treatment at Chelsea's Surrey training base on Sunday, despite the squad
being given two days' off by interim boss Guus Hiddink.
Costa
scored Chelsea's first as the Blues came back from 2-0 down to level at
2-2, with John Terry's controversial last-gasp goal in stoppage time
giving them a point from a 3-3 draw.
