It’s sixth versus first in the penultimate weekend of club football before the World Cup, and unfortunately, it’s Chelsea who are the team sitting in sixth — though Arsenal do need to win today to stay first after Manchester City’s last-gasp victory with 10 men against Fulham yesterday.

Chelsea have picked up just two points from our last three league games, and most definitely could use a (long overdue) victory over the Gunners at the Bridge.

Graham Potter’s lineup choices have become quite limited thanks to injuries. The official lineup tweet has us in 3-4-3 (with RLC as the right wing-back), but hopefully it’s a back-four instead. Young Lewis Hall makes the bench!

Here we go!

Mendy | Cucurella, Silva, Chalobah, Azpilicueta (c) | Loftus-Cheek, Jorginho | Mount, Havertz | Sterling, Aubameyang
