"Chelsea are without the suspended Moises Caicedo and the injured trio of Cole Palmer, Reece James and Malo Gusto. With Liam Delap also unavailable, Marc Guiu starts up front. William Saliba and Leandro Trossard are fit to start in a very strong Arsenal team. Never mind the starting XI, even the bench is frightening. Chelsea (possible 4-2-3-1) Sanchez; Acheampong, Fofana, Cucurella; Andrey Santos, Fernandez; Estevao, Joao Pedro, Neto; Guiu. Subs: Jorgensen, Tosin, Badiashile, Essugo, Hato, George, Buonanotte, Garnacho, Mheuka."
"The duo have not played this season and been up for sale since last summer but buyers have been in short supply. Disasi, the former Monaco centre-back, has been in limbo and the issue with Sterling is that the former England winger has 18 months on a contract worth about 325,000 a week. Chelsea's preference would be to move players on this month but Rosenior wants to speak to them to work out the best way forward."
Arsenal name a strong side and welcome back William Saliba and Leandro Trossard, with a deep bench that includes Gabriel Jesus and Martinelli. Chelsea are missing Moises Caicedo, Cole Palmer, Reece James, Malo Gusto and Liam Delap, prompting Marc Guiu to start up front and a switch to a back four. Liam Rosenior is focused on Carabao Cup semi-final preparations but will hold talks with Raheem Sterling and Axel Disasi to determine their futures. Both players have not featured this season and are available for sale amid limited interest, complicated by wages and Disasi's uncertain situation. Simon Hooper is the referee.
