Dismissed: Chelsea captain John Terry in disbelief as his late red card against Manchester City looked set to rule him out of the clash with Manchester United. He has since successfully appealed the ban.

Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed skipper John Terry is expected to recover quickly from the knee injury he sustained over the weekend.

Terry - who turns 29 on Monday - hobbled off late on in the club's 2-1 loss to Manchester City, and there were doubts as to whether he would be fit in for this week's Champions League clash against APOEL.

But while the England captain may miss the Cypriot side's visit, Ancelotti is confident that his star defender will be available to face Everton this coming Sunday.

"There is no problem," the Italian is quoted by the Irish Independent as saying.

"John Terry took a knock on the knee. He should be okay this week."

Chelsea have already qualified for the Champions League knock-out stage and will stay at the summit of Group D irrespective of this week's results.
