As Mikel Arteta faces a visit to Mauricio Pochettino’s home ground, here’s the Arsenal predicted lineup vs Chelsea in the Premier League.
Arsenal predicted lineup vs Chelsea
GK: David Raya – Fairly self-explanatory. I don’t need to go over the whole Ramsdale vs Raya debacle. Mikel Arteta has made his choice and certainly, David Raya has done nothing to hinder his chances for selection again.
RB: Ben White – Again, this one picks itself. After Ben White wasn’t selected for England in the international break (again), he’ll be fit and ready to go. He potentially comes up against Arsenal favourite Mykhailo Mudryk, but luckily White is the favourite by a mile to win this battle.
CB: William Saliba – He was withdrawn from the France squad for the international break but luckily it looks like nothing serious. If Saliba is even 75% fit, he’ll start in this match.
CB: Gabriel – He played both matches for Brazil during their international break and even scored against Venezuela. Getting back injury free, the underrated defender will start against Chelsea.
LB: Alex Zinchenko – Unsurprisingly, ZInny started in the midfield for Ukraine in both international matches and picked up an assist vs North Macedonia. He will start for the Gunners.
