Del Horno targets Anfield return

Chelsea’s Spanish left-back Asier Del Horno has targeted next Wednesday’s Champions League match against Liverpool for his return to action.

Del Horno sustained a thigh injury in the Barclays Premiership win over Sunderland two weeks ago, and although his fitness is being evaluated on a daily basis, it is unlikely he will be ready to face Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge tomorrow.
