Minor issue, not considered an injury
Colwill (undisclosed) came off with a minor issue during Wednesday's Carabao Cup meeting with Leeds, though it is not considered as an injury, according to coach Xabi Alonso, per Football London. "No, no, it's just some little things that he's having, but we don't expect that this is an injury."
Analysis: Colwill had returned to the starting lineup and captained Chelsea against Leeds, playing 74 minutes before being substituted, and manager Alonso's comments suggest the fitness concern is not significant. He should remain a strong option in the back three, with Josh Acheampong continuing to provide cover if his workload needs to be managed.
Returns to starting XI in Cup
Colwill (undisclosed) returned to the starting lineup and captained Chelsea against Leeds after being omitted from the squad at Arsenal.
Analysis: Colwill's omission at Arsenal appears to have been precautionary after he went straight back into the starting lineup and was given the captain's armband against Leeds. The center back played 74 minutes rather than completing the match, but his quick return indicates that the fitness concern has not developed into a significant restriction. With Colwill previously occupying a regular place in the back three, he should remain a strong option for Xabi Alonso, while Josh Acheampong can continue to provide cover if his workload is managed.
