Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has confirmed a big injury boost ahead of the Carabao Cup fourth round tie against Wolverhampton Wanderers on the road tomorrow.
The Blues suffered a disappointing 2-1 defeat to Sunderland in the Premier League last weekend, and they will be aiming to return to winning ways against Wolves.
Ahead of the encounter, Maresca has confirmed that Liam Delap is available for selection. The Englishman completed yesterday's training session and he is available to play.
He said: "Yes, he completed the session yesterday and is available. 90 minutes, no. Two months he has been out, so he needs to gradually be back to 100 percent."
Delap's return to action is a huge boost for the west London giants, considering Joao Pedro's form has been dreadful following a bright start to the campaign.
Marc Guiu scored in the Champions League against Ajax last week, but he was disappointing against Sunderland. He could start tomorrow as Delap may feature off the bench.
