Chelsea boss Frank Lampard has confirmed N'Golo Kante came through the midweek Champions League contest against Lille unscathed.
While the boss will be keeping a close eye on his recovery over the coming days due to a lack of match action so far this campaign, there is every chance he will be involved again at Southampton.
"It's something we'll have to watch over the next 24, 48 hours to make sure he's okay," said Lampard.
"All the players are on a semi-recovery programme after the Lille game but it's also the fact he hasn't played much.
"In terms of the injury, he's fine and there was no fallout with that from the Lille game so it's just about making sure he's fit and ready, which is a call for me to make."
