Bench option
Udogie (hamstring) is on the bench for Wednesday's match against Atletico Madrid.
Analysis: Udogie was back in training this week, and that has led to his return Wednesday, earning a spot on the bench. The defender is likely to build up some minutes before he returns to a starting role at left-back, as injuries have been a constant issue, with Djed Spence starting at left-back for the time being.
Trains with team Tuesday
Udogie (hamstring) was spotted back in team training Tuesday, according to Matt Verri from The Standard.
Analysis: Udogie has missed the last six games with a hamstring issue but looks back on track after returning to team training Tuesday and is now pushing for a comeback in the upcoming fixtures. Coach Igor Tudor confirmed he will be an option against Nottingham Forest in the next Premier League clash but the defender could also be in the mix for Wednesday's second-leg showdown against Atletico in the Champions League. Until he is fully back to match fitness, Djed Spence is expected to keep holding down the starting role on the left side of the back line.
