Nigerian international, John Mikel Obi, is expected to be listed as Chelsea travels to the Villa Park in Saturday’ English Premier League tie against Aston Villa.
Obi, who missed the London derby against Tottenham at the Stamford Bridge due to a hand injury, will provide Chelsea boss, Rafa Benitez, more options in their race for the top four finish.
Another Nigerian, Victor Moses, is also favoured to make the starting line up after coming as a second half substitute in the two-all draw against Spurs on Wednesday.
Chelsea’s skipper, John Terry, Frank Lampard and Demba Ba have also been tipped to replace Gary Cahill, David Luiz, Eden Hazard and Fernando Torres.
Meanwhile, Blues look to replicate a 8-0 win to secure top-four finish having won two of their last four Premier League trips to Villa Park, dropping points with a draw and a defeat in the other two.
