David Luiz is set to return to the Chelsea setup for the match against FC Nordsjaelland after serving a one match ban.

Vote for David Luiz in the 2012 Samba Gold Trophy

The Seleção defender picked up five yellow cards in the league and therefore missed Chelsea’s defeat to West Ham United last weekend.

Luiz will partner Gary Cahill in defence as John Terry’s return comes too late for tonight’s clash whereas Frank Lampard and Daniel Sturridge are ruled out with calf and hamstring injuries respectively.

Ramires and Oscar are also expected to feature tonight as Rafa Benitez’s side hold onto a slim hope that they may progress to the next round.

Luiz, along with fellow teammate Ramires, are also one of our 30 nominees for the 2012 Samba Gold Trophy, which recognises the best performing Brazilian playing in Europe this season.
