Diego Costa and Pedro will have fitness tests ahead of Chelsea’s match against Liverpool.
Pedro has recently been out with minor injury, while striker Costa hobbled off during the midweek League Cup tie against Stoke after taking knock to the ribs.
Both players will be assessed before Blues boss Jose Mourinho names his squad for Saturday’s game at Stamford Bridge.
“With Pedro and Diego we have to wait,” said Mourinho, whose team have won only one of their last seven matches.
“I know the desire (to play) is there. It’s more about their confidence to be able to play.”
Chelsea are still without Branislav Ivanovic and goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, who are sidelined with hamstring and knee injuries respectively.
