Speaking to Goal.com, Sunil Chhetri confirmed that he indeed picked up a wrist injury today at training. Sunil has been in good form ever since his return from England, and has scored thrice in the last two games.

East Bengal play Mohun Bagan on Sunday in what should be an exciting derby, but Sunil was himself unsure of whether he can make his return in time to start the game.

Mohun Bagan are going great guns in the league at the moment, with ten wins on the trot, which has seen them shoot up to the top of the league. East Bengal have been in good form in their last two games as well, but this injury could be big setback if Sunil indeed doesn't feature on Sunday.
