The Blues are currently three points behind fourth-placed Manchester United in the standings and can ill-afford to drop further ground this weekend.

Ahead of the London derby, Rosenior has practically confirmed that he will be without three players including Marc Cucurella, who is nursing a hamstring issue.

Alongside the Spaniard, Estevao and Jamie Gittens are likewise ruled out with hamstring injuries of their own. The trio won't play any part against the Gunners on the road.

Chelsea have shared the spoils against Leeds United and Burnley in their last two league matches and now face a daunting challenge against Arsenal away from home.

The Blues have not beaten the Gunners in the last 10 meetings with seven losses and three draws. They need a huge performance on Sunday to come on top in the derby.
