QPR boss Mark Hughes will check with Anton Ferdinand ahead of selecting him for their FA Cup clash with Chelsea.
The Hoops won the league clash between the sides at Loftus Road, but the match is remembered for allegations that John Terry aimed racial abuse at Ferdinand. Terry has always denied the allegations.
"Obviously I will speak with all the players leading into the game and get an understanding of where they are in their mind in terms of the mentality that you need to go into that game.
"It is a challenging game and a big test for us, but knowing Anton and having seen him over the years I am quite sure he will want to be involved in that game.
"It is a big game anyway because of the opposition and they are near neighbours."
