Chelsea will be without striker Armando Broja, but Benoit Badiashile could be involved. Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo are available following international duty in South America.

Arsenal will make late assessments over Bukayo Saka, William Saliba and Leandro Trossard.

    I have a bad feeling about this game Chelsea would like to make their name at our expense if we are not motivated/ overconfidence we may get cooked

    Despite their place in the table, Chelsea haven’t been completely shit this season as fun as it is to meme them. And away London derbies are rarely easy. They will be up for it.

    Predicting a cagey 2-0, 2-1 win for us.

    Really interested to see what our lineup will be. I would personally go Partey, Rice, Odegaard, in the midfield. It’s the midfield that gives us the most solidarity.

      They actually have played the 2nd easiest schedule, only Everton has had an easier one. They aren’t as good as you think.

        I never said they were world beaters, and I’m aware of their schedule. They’ve also been decimated by injuries.

        We cannot become too arrogant. We struggled with Nottingham Forest and Fulham at home. A team that does that cannot overlook Chelsea, even if they are struggling.

    Chelsea are actually very decent side. There’s a good chance we could lose, and I wouldn’t be surprised. If we win this one, I’ll completely forgive us for drawing at home to Fulham in embarrassing style.

    I got a good feeling, Chelsea don’t play that well. Key is to score early and make their supporters go against them.

      Their underlying metrics have been top. Shouldn’t underestimate. Key is to score early and then keep the nerves

    The overconfidence worries me. Hope our players are focused from the start, far from an easy game as people keep claiming.

    Arsenal 3 Chelsea 0 Corner goal from Gabriel. Outside the box from Ø and a tap in for Jesus. Easy as that.
