Predicted Chelsea line-up (3-4-2-1) vs Arsenal, Lukaku and Kante start

Chelsea entertain London rivals Arsenal in Wednesday's Premier League encounter at Stamford Bridge.

  • Arsenal handed major boost on Odegaard for Newcastle trip
  • Enzo Maresca explains why Cole Palmer didn't face Newcastle



  • The Blues have won three games on the bounce, and should be favourites to beat the Gunners tomorrow.

    Mikel Arteta's side have looked out of sorts since the international break with three straight league defeats.

    Formation: 3-4-2-1

    Predicted Line-up:

    Edouard Mendy has been an undisputed choice in goal for the Premier League games when fit and available. There are no questions over his place in the starting XI.

    Reece James could feature in his customary right wing-back role tomorrow. This should pave the way for Thiago Silva to return to the back three alongside Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger.

    Marcos Alonso is a confirmed starter at left wing-back over Malang Sarr and Saul Niguez. In midfield, Thomas Tuchel will have to make an enforced change with Mateo Kovacic sidelined with an ankle injury.

    Ruben Loftus-Cheek should come in after bagging the opening goal in Sunday's FA Cup semi-final win over Crystal Palace. Meanwhile, Jorginho could be dropped for N'Golo Kante after a poor showing at Wembley.

    Further forward, Mason Mount should be assured a starting place, having made a stunning six goal contributions in the last three games alone. He could be partnered by Timo Werner in attack after his assist on Sunday.

    Romelu Lukaku has been out of form and short of fitness of late, but he could be unleashed against the Gunners. The Belgian tormented their defence last time around with a goal and an assist.

    Predicted Chelsea line-up (3-4-2-1): Mendy; Christensen, Silva, Rudiger; James, Loftus-Cheek, Kante, Alonso; Mount, Werner; Lukaku.
