Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has no fresh injury worries ahead of their home game with London rivals West Ham at Stamford Bridge tomorrow.
Salomon Kalou is doubtful with a leg injury which kept him out of the squad for the clash with Watford last week.
Italian goalkeeper Carlo Cudicini is almost certain to retain his place in Mourinho’s starting line-up ahead of Hilario and the Portuguese coach is expected to welcome back Mikel John Obi for the first time since he was sent off against Reading last month.
Provisional squad: Cudicini, Hilario, Ferreira, Geremi, Bridge, A Cole, Terry, Carvalho, Boulahrouz, Lampard, Ballack, Essien, Makelele, Drogba, Shevchenko, Robben, Wright-Phillips, J Cole, Diarra, Mikel.
