Lampard confirms Pulisic comeback for derby

Chelsea manager Frank Lampard has confirmed that the Blues have no fresh injury concerns to deal with ahead of the London derby against Tottenham Hotspur this weekend.

The Blues have been without Christian Pulisic for more two months with a hamstring problem, but he has returned to training and is in contention to face Spurs on Sunday.

"Team news-wise, we are as we were really. Christian Pulisic is back in contention for the game after working on his fitness," Lampard told in the pre-match press conference.

Pulisic has experienced multiple injury concerns since joining the Blues last year and it won't come as a surprise, should he start on the bench for the weekend's Premier League clash.

Chelsea are unbeaten in the Premier League since the defeat to Liverpool on Matchday 2. They are currently placed third on the table, just two points behind Spurs, who are top of the standings.

They have won the previous three league derbies against Spurs.
