Thomas Tuchel is hopeful that he will have Cesar Azpilicueta and Callum Hudson-Odoi available for Chelsea's Champions League clash with Lille this week.
The Blues return to action in Europe's premier competition with a home game against last year's Ligue Un champions in the round of 16 first leg clash at Stamford Bridge.
Lille go into the game against the Blues having had an extra day to prepare for the encounter, having drawn 0-0 with Metz on Friday night, compared with Chelsea's game against Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon.
