Terry and Cole set to start semi-final

Defenders John Terry and Ashley Cole were today both passed fit for Chelsea’s FA Cup semi-final against Tottenham.

Terry (cracked ribs) and Cole (ankle) were doubts but have trained ahead of Sunday’s Wembley clash.

Branislav Ivanovic begins a three-match ban after being found guilty of violent conduct, while Ryan Bertrand (calf) and Oriol Romeu (illness) are set to miss out.

Provisional squad: Cech, Ferreira, Bosingwa, Terry, Luiz, Cahill, Cole, Mikel, Meireles, Lampard, Ramires, Mata, Malouda, Drogba, Torres, Sturridge, Kalou, Turnbull.
