Predicted Chelsea line-up (3-5-2) vs Arsenal, Havertz starts

02 May 2023 - 17:51

Chelsea will be aiming to return to winning ways when they face Arsenal in the Premier League tonight.

  • Omari Hutchinson wants to continue at Ipswich Town
  • Mikel Arteta insists 27yo star won't be leaving Arsenal



  • The Blues have picked up just two points from their last six matches. They will be aiming to spring up a surprise at the Emirates Stadium.

    Formation: 3-5-2

    Predicted Line-up:

    Kepa Arrizabalaga has played every game in goal for Chelsea since the World Cup. The Spaniard is expected to continue between the sticks in the London derby.

    In front of him, it could be a back three again. Wesley Fofana and Thiago Silva should be assured starters. We anticipate Benoit Badiashile to replace Trevoh Chalobah.

    With Reece James injured, Cesar Azpilicueta should start at right-back. Similar, Ben Chilwell should be an assured starter at left wing-back with Marc Cucurella sidelined.

    Frank Lampard could pick a three-man midfield to curb Arsenal's threat. Enzo Fernandez, Mateo Kovacic and N'Golo Kante are the best combination available to him.

    In attack, Conor Gallagher will possibly make way with Kai Havertz fit for selection. The German is likely to partner Raheem Sterling up front against the Gunners tonight.

    Predicted Chelsea line-up (3-5-2): Arrizabalaga; Fofana, Silva, Badiashile; Azpilicueta, Fernandez, Kante, Kovacic, Chilwell; Havertz, Sterling.
