Andy Carroll has given West Ham a boost by returning to training ahead of their Monday Night Football clash with Chelsea.
The striker has been absent for nearly a month with a groin injury, with his last appearance coming in the 3-1 win, that he contributed a goal to, at Southampton on February 4.
With the Hammers out of the FA Cup, the injury has meant he missed only two games but he could now feature when Chelsea return to the London Stadium on Monday.
West Ham have drawn both of their games in Carroll's absence, 2-2 at home to West Brom and 1-1 at Watford last weekend.
Carroll has managed only nine Premier League starts this season, scoring six goals.
