the Blues' 1-1 draw at Manchester City last month.
Ramires was in contention for a return to the squad for
Chelsea's trip to Manchester United last weekend, but failed to
make Jose Mourninho's 18-man travelling party.
However, he how looks set for a return to action on Saturday,
when Harry Redknapp's Hoops travel to Stamford Bridge.
In another boost, Diego Costa is in line to take his place in the
squad after missing Chelsea's last four matches with a
combination of hamstring and groin injuries and illness.
The Spain striker is the join-leading scorer in the top flight, and
Mourinho will be eager to welcome him back to ease the burden
on veteran striker Didier Drogba.
Fellow frontman Loic Remy is still a few weeks away from a
return after a groin injury, while Cesar Azpilicueta serves the
final game of a three-match ban after being sent off at Crystal
Palace.
Branislav Ivanovic returns after missing the midweek win at
Shrewsbury due to the red card he recevied at Old Trafford last
weekend.
