Anton Ferdinand has recovered from his injury in time to start for Queens Park Rangers against Chelsea at Loftus Road.

The defender was a doubt for the game due to a shoulder problem but attentions will now turn to whether he will shake hands with John Terry this afternoon.

Terry has also overcome his own fitness problems to start for Chelsea and he will be partnered by David Luiz in the away side's defence.

Ashley Cole will play at full-back for the Champions League winners with Ryan Bertrand once again being used in midfield by Roberto Di Matteo.

QPR: Cesar, Ferdinand, Park, Johnson, Wright-Phillips, Granero, Nelsen, Bosingwa, Da Silva, Zamora, Faurlin

Chelsea: Cech, Ivanovic, Cole, Luiz, Ramires, Lampard, Torres, Mikel, Hazard, Terry, Bertrand
