Chelsea hopeful on Cahill and Luiz after pair train all week

Chelsea boss Roberto Di Matteo suggests that defensive pair Gary Cahill and David Luiz could play this weekend.

The Blues are preparing for the Champions League final against Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena tomorrow night and could have the central defensive duo available after both suffering hamstring injuries.

Cahill has been sidelined since the semi-final second leg against Barcelona on April 24 whilst Luiz has been missing since the FA Cup semi-final win over Tottenham on April 15 but both are a big chance of turning out against Bayern.

"Cahill and Luiz trained all week, so we are very hopeful," Di Matteo said today.
