Arsenal aim to get their faltering Premier League title bid back on track when they welcome Chelsea to the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday.
Arsenal: Team News
Mikel Arteta will be without the influential William Saliba once again, as the centre-half remains absent due to a back problem.
Takehiro Tomiyasu and Mohamed Elneny are also unavailable for the Gunners due to season-ending knee injuries.
Despite the nature of the defeat, Arteta is unlikely to tinker too much with the side that began the 4-1 reverse against Manchester City last time out.
Although, Leandro Trossard will be pushing for a start after impressing from the bench at the Etihad Stadium, providing the assist for Rob Holding’s consolation.
Arsenal: Predicted Lineup
Arsenal Predicted XI: Aaron Ramsdale; Ben White, Rob Holding, Gabriel Magalhaes, Oleksandr Zinchenko; Martin Odegaard, Thomas Partey, Granit Xhaka; Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Martinelli.
