Chelsea could receive a significant injury boost with striker João Pedro fit for the Premier League encounter against Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge.
Pedro has been a key figure for Chelsea this season, yet he missed the 3-0 defeat at Brentford due to a knee edema.
The issue also kept him out of Brazil duty, and he recently consulted a knee specialist as part of his recovery.
Chelsea have not yet issued an official fitness update, but Brazilian reports suggest Pedro has made solid progress during the break.
He is expected to feature in training early next week and could be fit for the Blues’ home meeting with the Cherries next weekend.
Chelsea have collected just seven points from five opening league matches and are eager to build momentum with a winning run.
Pedro’s availability could prove pivotal as Chelsea look to reverse their season’s trajectory.
