Petr Cech will return to action for Chelsea against Portsmouth on Wednesday, manager Carlo Ancelotti has revealed.
The goalkeeper has been out injured since landing awkwardly in the Blues' Champions League game against Inter Milan in Italy last month, with Henrique Hilario and then Ross Turnbull asked to deputise as the side were knocked out of the Champions League and stuttered domestically.
But Ancelotti will welcome back his No. 1 at Fratton Park, and hopes his presence will see a revival in his side's form.
"Carlo Ancelotti has announced that Petr Cech will return for the game at Portsmouth on Wednesday," the club's website confirmed.
"Hilario is also close to full fitness as the goalkeeping injury picture improves. He is expected to be ready for Saturday's visit by Aston Villa."
