The Gunners recovered from being knocked out of the Champions League by Harry Kane and Bayern Munich last week by defeating Wolves 0-2 at the weekend. It was a tough ask, but not as tough as the one that was faced by the Blues. Mauricio Pochettino saw his side miss a number of big chances against Man City as he lost at Wembley once again in the FA Cup semi-final.

The Argentinian also has injury issues. Not only are fullbacks Malo Gusto and Ben Chillwell out, but star man Cole Palmer is absent due to illness. Mikel Arteta has no such concerns. Bukayo Saka was once again seen limping towards the end of Saturday’s match but is fit to start.

The last time these sides met in the EPL it was an exciting 2-2 draw. It is the North Londoners who generally have the upper hand though, winning five of the last seven league encounters between these teams. Doing so again will keep them on top of the table. 

Here's how they line up:

Arsenal: Raya, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Tomiyasu, Partey, Odegaard, Rice, Saka, Havertz, Trossard

Chelsea: Petrovic, Gilchrist, Disasi, Badiashille, Cucurella, Caicedo, Enzo Fernandez, Gallagher, Madueke, Jackson, Mudryk

Read on to find out how to watch this crucial game wherever you are. Plus, make sure you don’t miss any of the EPL action by checking out how to watch Premier League live streams.
