How should Chelsea line up against league-leaders Arsenal?

A daunting task awaits Chelsea this weekend as we travel the relatively short distance to take on familiar foes Arsenal. The Gunners are leading the league at the moment, though Manchester City have closed the gap to just five points (and they play each other very soon). Right now, it’s up to us to take points off the leaders, ideally all three!

To accomplish that, we’re going to have to do something we haven’t done in several years, beat Arsenal! It’s now ten without a win for the Blues, an unconscionable run of failure.

With no midweek game, Chelsea have been able to rest up some of those who had been carrying injuries, including the likes of Reece James and Cole Palmer. Unfortunately, the same is not true for every player, with Estêvão set to miss out again, alongside Marc Cucurella, Jamie Gittens, Levi Colwil, Roméo Lavia, and Dário Essugo — the latter two appear to be close to returning, maybe.

Oh, and Wesley Fofana’s suspended for his red card in the last game.

Choose wisely!
