Chelsea confident Terry will earn his Spurs
Posted Tuesday, December 20, 2011 by YAHOO Sport
Chelsea captain John Terry is expected to be fit to face Tottenham in Thursday's London derby despite limping out of Monday's open training session at Stamford Bridge.
According to a statement on Chelsea's website, the England centre-back "pinched his Achilles" while blocking a shot towards the end of the training session and went off for treatment as a precaution.
However, Chelsea said they expect Terry, who took a blow to the knee during last weekend's 1-1 Premier League draw with Wigan, to lead the team out as normal at White Hart Lane on Thursday.
Chelsea are currently fourth in the table, just two points behind third-placed Tottenham.
