Team News: Samuel Eto'o returns for Chelsea

Eto'o returns for Chelsea

Samuel Eto'o has returned to the Chelsea starting lineup for tonight's Champions League quarter-final second leg against Paris Saint-Germain at Stamford Bridge.

The striker, who has missed the last three games due to a hamstring injury, replaces Fernando Torres up front for the Blues.

Meanwhile, David Luiz, Eden Hazard and Oscar have all been recalled by manager Jose Mourinho following Saturday's 3-0 win over Stoke City.

The big news for PSG is that Zlatan Ibrahimovic misses out with a hamstring problem.

Laurent Blanc has opted to make seven changes in total after seeing his side beat Reims 3-0 on the weekend.

Christophe Jallet, Alex and Maxwell all return in defence, while Marco Verratti and Thiago Motta have also been brought back in. Blaise Matuidi and Ezequiel Lavezzi are also included.

Chelsea: Cech; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Azpilicueta; Luiz, Lampard; Willian, Oscar, Hazard; Eto'o Subs: Schwarzer, Cole, Kalas, Mikel, Schurrle, Ba, Torres

PSG: Sirigu; Jallet, Alex, T Silva, Maxwell; Verratti, Motta, Matuidi, Lucas; Cavani, Lavezzi Subs: Douchez, Marquinhos, Digne, Van der Wiel, Cabaye, Menez, Pastore
