Deco And Riccy Out

Ricardo Carvalho could be out for a month and Deco could miss two weeks of action.
Riccy limped off during the 1-1 draw with Manchester United on Sunday with a knee injury and the club's medical staff estimate he will be out of action for three or four weeks.
Brazil defender Alex is expected to take his place in the team after he was praised by the Chelsea boss Luiz Felipe Scolari.
He said: "He is a player that is very fast and he smells when the ball is coming. He can read where the ball is going to be and go."
Deco tore a thigh muscle in the warm-up before the Manchester United match but his injury could be covered by the imminent signing of free agent Mineiro.
