Chelsea defender Wayne Bridge could be restored to left-back for the Barclays Premiership clash with Liverpool on Sunday.
Bridge has trained since Monday after picking up a knock against Tottenham and may be given a start at Stamford Bridge after missing out on Wednesday night’s Champions League match against Porto.
Injured trio Adrian Mutu, Celestine Babayaro and Arjen Robben are still sidelined and will not feature against Liverpool.
Provisional squad: Cech, Cudicini, Pidgeley, Ferreira, Johnson, Carvalho, Terry, Gallas, Huth, Bridge, Tiago, Makelele, Lampard, Smertin, Geremi, Parker, Cole, Duff, Drogba, Gudjohnsen, Kezman.
