Ross Barkley is in contention to make his Chelsea debut after being included in the matchday squad for the trip to Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday.
Antonio Conte says the January signing from Everton is fit, two days after impressing in a behind-closed-doors friendly.
"I don't know if during the game I will decide to give him the chance to play a part of the game or if I want to wait," the head coach told Chelsea's official website.
But Conte will be without Cesc Fabregas and Gary Cahill for the early Saturday match after both players suffered injuries.
