Substituted due to fatigue
Caicedo was substituted late in Saturday's 2-0 Premier League victory over Everton due to tiredness rather than a new injury concern, according to coach Xabi Alonso, per Roundtable. "For Moi, it was his second game. He was a bit tired."
Analysis: Caicedo was withdrawn during the closing stages of Saturday's 2-0 victory over Everton as Chelsea continued to manage his workload following his recent return to action. The Ecuadorian midfielder made his second consecutive appearance after recovering from a calf injury and delivered another solid performance in the center of the pitch, recording one shot, one chance created and 58 passes. He also completed six passes into the final third and five line-breaking passes while winning 50 percent of his ground duels and one aerial duel. Caicedo came close to scoring with a powerful first-half effort that struck the woodwork, although his attacking contributions remained limited overall. Coach Alonso's comments suggest his substitution was precautionary rather than injury-related, and with Chelsea having a full week to prepare for Saturday's clash against Tottenham, Caicedo should have sufficient time to recover and remain in contention for his usual starting role.
Creates one chance in victory
Caicedo registered one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-0 victory over Everton.
Analysis: Caicedo wasn't the man of the hour as the midfielder only managed a one-off-target shot and created one chance against Everton. He offered limited attacking output, but his deeper position helped him make the joint-most passes in the game (58). The Ecuadorian also won 50 per cent of the ground duels faced and one aerial duel. Furthermore, he made six passes into the final third and five line-breaking passes.
