Diego Costa, Pedro and Radamel Falcao all return to training

Chelsea have been handed a triple fitness boost just 24-hours before their crunch Champions League tie with Paris Saint-Germain.

The Blues were dealt a blow over the weekend with the news that John Terry wouldn’t be fit in time for the second-leg, but they have been given a triple boost with Diego Costa, Pedro and Radamel Falcao all returning to first-team training.

Chelsea go into the game 2-1 down after the first-leg defeat in Paris, but due to John Obi Mikel‘s away goal, they know a 1-0 win at Stamford Bridge tomorrow evening would be enough for them to advance.

Trio Return

Costa, Pedro and Falcao have all been absent in recent weeks, with the Colombian striker being out the longest, but all three of them took part in first-team training today and could be involved in tomorrow’s game.

Costa sat out of the 1-1 draw with Stoke City on Saturday.
