    Chelsea duo fit to face Tottenham

    Chelsea have received a boost ahead of Saturday’s crucial London Derby against Tottenham with the return of Frank Lampard and Ryan Bertrand from injury.

    The pair missed both of England's recent World Cup 2014 qualifiers, against San Marino and Poland, and it was unclear whether they would be fit enough for the clash with Spurs and former boss Andre Villas-Boas.

    But manager Roberto Di Matteo confirmed Lampard is fit again after a knee injury while Bertrand has recovered from illness.

    Di Matteo said: "Lampard and Bertrand are back fit and well.

    "They have trained for two full sessions and are available to play against Spurs."
