stars in Europe - Eto'o could return for Chelsea vs PSG

Striker Samuel Eto'o could be available for Chelsea when they face Paris-St Germain in Tuesday's Champions League quarter-final second leg.

The 33-year-old has missed the Blues' past three matches with a hamstring injury, but trained on Monday, albeit not with his team-mates. Winger Andre Schurrle, who came off injured against Stoke on Saturday, should be fit for Tuesday's game. The Blues are looking to overturn a 3:1 deficit from the first leg.

Midfielder John Mikel Obi missed the Stoke game with an injury, but may replace the suspended Ramires or the ineligible Nemanja Matic. PSG will be without striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who came off with a thigh injury in the first match at the Parc de Princes.

The Swede, who has scored 40 goals for the Ligue 1 side this season, will be replaced in attack by Edinson Cavani. The Uruguay forward, signed for £55m in the summer, has regularly been employed on the right by coach Laurent Blanc in his 4-2-3-1 system. "Cavani's not just a scorer who goal hangs in the penalty area, that's why he's useful. He defends, he fights, he harasses opponents, so that's great for us," said Blanc.
