Winger to miss Bridge trip

Olympiakos midfielder Luciano Galletti looks set to miss next week's UEFA Champions League clash with Chelsea. The Argentine international picked up a thigh injury in last weekend's game against PAOK Salonika and he faces a spell on the sidelines. Galletti, who impressed in the first leg meeting with Chelsea in Athens last week, is expected to be out of action for three weeks, ruling him out of the return leg at Stamford Bridge on 5th March. The news is a blow for Olympiakos as they look to dump Chelsea out after earning a goalless draw in the first leg. Better news on the injury front for Olympiakos is the expected return of Tresor Lomana LuaLua for the game against Chelsea. Former Portsmouth and Newcastle striker LuaLua missed the first leg draw, but he is now back in training after recovering from injury.
