Arsenal v Chelsea LIVE: Team news and line-ups from Premier League derby

Arteta is set to bring back several players who were benched in midweek against PSV. Gabriel Jesus, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka remain out injured.

Reece James and Cole Palmer have shaken off illness and are expected to start the game, while Maresca confirmed in his press conference that Robert Sanchez would start in goal. Chelsea are still set to be without Marc Guiu, Nicolas Jackson, Noni Madueke, Malo Gusto and Mykhailo Mudryk.

The match will kick off at 1.30pm GMT at the Emirates Stadium today, Sunday 16 March.

Arsenal v Chelsea will be broadcast live in the UK on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League TV channels. Subscribers can watch the match online via the Sky Sports and Sky Go website and apps.

Chelsea have their own ambitions as they hunt a place in next season’s Champions League, which will likely require finishing in the top five. Enzo Maresca’s side sat fourth coming into the weekend and are on a run of four successive wins after knocking out Copenhagen in the Europa Conference League in midweek.

Arsenal come into the game after seeing off PSV in the Champions League in midweek via a 2-2 draw and 9-3 aggregate victory, and they should be fresh after Mikel Arteta rested several of his stars.
