Ashley Cole could be handed a rare recent start at left-back, while Michael Essien is available again after suspension.Swansea striker Michu is to undergo surgery on his ankle and will be out for six weeks.
Nathan Dyer, Garry Monk and Michel Vorm remain absent because of injury but Leon Britton has overcome a broken toe.
Jose Mourinho left the Emirates on Monday night with cries of 'Boring, Boring, Chelsea' ringing in his ears and I'm sure he won't have minded that one bit. His team produced a controlled, disciplined performance and, while Arsenal felt they were the only side trying to win the game, Chelsea never looked like losing.
There were some similarities to the stalemate against Manchester United at Old Trafford earlier in the season and there's something to be said for making sure you don't lose the big games on the road.
The upshot is that Chelsea are very handily placed at Christmas, just two points behind the leaders Liverpool in a tightly-packed title race.
If Monday's game was one Chelsea were determined not to lose, then this is one they'll be all out to win against last season's Capital One Cup winners, Swansea have only taken 38 points from 35 league matches played in this calendar year.
The Swans beat Chelsea in the semi-finals en route to Wembley last season, winning 2-0 at Stamford Bridge when Michu and Danny Graham seized on two errors by Branislav Ivanovic.
Swansea are one of only four teams along with Newcastle, Tottenham and Aston Villa with more wins away than at home this season.
Winning this fixture looks like a tall order, though, against a side which hasn't lost at home in the league under Jose Mourinho, and which is unbeaten on Boxing Day since the Portuguese began his first spell at the club back in 2004.
Head-to-head
Swansea's only league victory at Stamford Bridge came in their first-ever meeting back in November 1925.
Swansea have won just two of the last 13 meetings in all competitions (W2, D5, L6).
There have been three red cards for Chelsea players in the last six meetings with Swansea in all competitions.
Chelsea
The 0-0 draw with Arsenal was only Chelsea's second clean sheet in their last 12 league games.
They have recovered a league-high 11 points from losing positions this season.
Chelsea took part in the highest scoring Premier League game on Boxing Day when they drew 4-4 with Aston Villa in 2007.
Frank Lampard has played an unrivalled 15 Premier League games on 26 December.
Swansea
They are three points worse off than at the same stage of last season.
Swansea have only won two of their last nine league matches.
They have benefited from five own goals this season. Apart from when Manchester United had 10 in 2009-10, no team has had more than six in one season.
