Fixture: Chelsea vs Arsenal
Competition: Premier League
Kick-off: 13:30 (UK time)

Chelsea have confirmed their starting eleven and substitutes to play host to Arsenal in a Premier League fixture this afternoon at Stamford Bridge.

Antonio Conte's men head into the clash on the back of a resounding 6-0 Champions League win over Qarabag, meaning confidence is sure to be high in the Chelsea camp.




Chelsea continue to be without new signing Danny Drinkwater, who has a calf injury.

Conte picks Thibaut Courtois in goal, while for his back three the Italian goes with Cesar Azpilicueta, Gary Cahill and David Luiz. Victor Moses and Marcos Alonso operate as wing-backs, while N'Golo Kante and Cesc Fabregas pair up in midfield. Willian, Alvaro Morata and Pedro Rodriguez provide the attacking threat.

If the Chelsea manager needs to make changes then he can look to his bench and call for Eden Hazard, with Tiemoue Bakayoko another option.
