Chelsea keeper Petr Cech will have a scan on a leg injury after being forced off at half-time during the 2-1 victory over Everton on Sunday.

Cech failed to return for the second half and was replaced by Ross Turnbull after straining an adductor muscle at the top of his leg at Goodison Park.

He was initially thought to have hurt his ankle but interim manager Rafael Benitez clarified the problem and revealed the keeper could miss Chelsea's clash against west London rivals Queens Park Rangers on January 2.
