Chelsea have been handed a double injury boost ahead of Saturday's clash against West Ham United with both Mateo Kovacic and Denis Zakaria returning to training this week.
Kovacic has struggled with injuries throughout the campaign and missed last Friday's draw against Fulham and the stalemate at Anfield against Liverpool due to a calf issue. The Croatian midfielder has started just seven Premier League matches for Chelsea this season but is in contention to feature at the London Stadium.
Zakaria has been sidelined since hobbling off during Chelsea’s defeat to Fulham at Craven Cottage. The Switzerland international has been ruled out for almost a month but has stepped up his recovery this week and has been involved in sessions with the first-team squad.
