In a match valid for the round of 16 of the Champions League, Chelsea will receive the Borussia Dortmund team at Stanford Bridge tomorrow.

To guarantee a direct place in the next stage, the Blues will have to win by at least 2 goals apart. Londoners will be able to count on the return of three players for Tuesday’s clash.

Reece James, N’Golo Kante and Christian Pulisic attended today’s training session in Cobham.

It is believed that Graham Potter will provide information on the trio’s playing condition at the later press conference.

The Chelsea coach will not have at his disposal names like: Benoit Badiashile, David Fofana and Aubameyang, as none of them is registered in the competition.

In addition to them, Mason Mount, who was absent in the victory against Leeds United in the Premier League, will be suspended for the third yellow card.

Edouard Mendy, Armando Broja and Thiago Silva are still out. Cesar Azpilicueta should be out as he still complies with injury protocols against Southampton.
