Chelsea receive double injury boost ahead of Liverpool clash

Chelsea have received a double injury boost ahead of the Premier League clash against Liverpool on Thursday night.

The Blues have missed the services of Thiago Silva for four weeks with a hamstring concern, but he has now returned to full training.

The club have coped well in his absence with Antonio Rudiger, Andreas Christensen and Cesar Azpilicueta impressing in the back three.

Blues boss Thomas Tuchel has a decision to make whether to pick the Brazilian in the starting line-up after just one training session.

Meanwhile, Callum Hudson-Odoi has also shaken off a minor injury and he was involved in the full training session on Tuesday.

The Englishman has been regularly swapped with Reece James in the right wing-back role and the latter may get the nod to start at Anfield.

The Blues are unbeaten since the appointment of Tuchel as the manager in January. They have won four and drawn three of the seven league games under him.
