Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho says he has no injury problems ahead of the clash with Stoke although Jon Obi Mikel has been rested due to fatigue.
"In this moment we have no injuries but Mikel is not selected. He is fine, he is working all week with the group. He's tired, he's very tired," he said at his pre-match press conference.
Diego Costa has recovered from his hamstring injury but Mourinho admitted that the Brazil-born Spaniard's recent return to training means he may not start.
"Diego trained yesterday and today with the group. He's not injured. I don't know if I start with him or not because muscular injury, two days with the group, I need to make a decision on him," Mourinho added.

Mourinho knows his side need 19 points to claim their first Premier League title since the 2009/10 season.
The Portuguese added: "We need six victories and one draw in nine matches. It's a good situation for us. We need to do that.
"I'm not thinking about how or when, I'm just thinking that we need to win six matches and one draw. Every victory we have is one less we need and is one less for our opponents to reach us.
"I just want to win it."
