Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior has confirmed that Cole Palmer and Reece James are absolutely fine ahead of the Premier League clash against Aston Villa on the road tomorrow.
The Blues are winless in the last three league matches and will aim to return to winning ways at Villa Park on Wednesday night.
Ahead of the game, Rosenior has revealed that Palmer and James are absolutely fine to be involved against Unai Emery's side.
He said: "So yes, Cole’s absolutely fine to start the game on Wednesday and Reece [James] is also fine."
The Blues are currently three points behind Liverpool for the fifth position, which could be enough to qualify for the Champions League.
Liverpool are widely expected to beat Wolverhampton Wanderers on the road and the onus is on the Blues to win and avoid losing ground.
Villa beat them at Stamford Bridge earlier this campaign and the Blues face another tough challenge without home advantage this time.
