Chelsea can take a big step towards qualifying for the Champions League with a win over Arsenal at the Emirates on Saturday night.

Three points would allow the Blues to climb over Tottenham and create a gap of nine points over the Gunners.

However, Maurizio Sarri's men have won just one victory over their last three Premier League matches, and their 2-1 victory over Newcastle last weekend was far from convincing.

You can listen to the live comments from the Emirates on talkSPORT, the 5:30 pm kickoff.

News from the Chelsea team

Ruben Loftus-Cheek is the only player missing due to injury, the Blues naming an unchanged Newcastle victory.

This means that Eden Hazard continues in the role of fake nine and that the former Arsenal player, Olivier Giroud, starts on the bench.


Chelsea XI: Arrizabalaga, Azpilicueta, Rudiger, Luiz, Alonso, Kante, Jorginho, Kovacic, Pedro, Hazard, Willian.

Subs: Barkley, Caballero, Giroud, Hudson-Odoi, Christensen, Emerson Palmieri, Ampadu.
