CHELSEA'S DROGBA RECOVERS FROM INJURY; WILL START VS. MAN U

LONDON -- Chelsea striker Didier Drogba has recovered from a knee injury and will start Saturday's crucial Premier League match at Manchester United.

The Ivory Coast international missed last week's 7-1 win over Aston Villa and missed two days of training after teammate Yuri Zirkhov accidentally kicked him in training.

Coach Carlo Ancelotti says Drogba trained Thursday and is fit to play the league leader and defending champion.
