Chelsea football club will battle with Arsenal today at the Emirate looking to continue their impressive start to the new season by bagging all three points.
It is a game that is shaping up to be an entertaining encounter with Arsenal also in need of a win after losing their opening game to newly promoted side Brentford.
Ahead of that game Chelsea will be altering their starting lineup from the one that played against Crystal palace on the opening day with Christian Pulisic out of the team, Lukaku joining and Ngolo Kante returning to training in midweek.

Below are the preferred eleven that will take on Arsenal at the Emirate stadium and come out with both an impressive display and all three points.
Goalkeeper. Edouard Mendy kept a clean sheet against Crystal palace at the weekend and will be giving the nod again today.
Mendy to remain in goal
Defender. If it is not broken don’t fix it and that’s why we will be persisting with the back three of Andrea Christensen, Trevoh Chalobah and Antonio Rudiger.

Wing backs. We are tempted to recall Reece James and Ben Chilwell but we have feelings that the coach will continue with Cesar Azpilicueta and Marcus Alonso
Midfield. We are assuming that Ngolo Kante is not fully fit to start, so we opt for the Midfield duo of jorginho Frello and Mateo Kovacic.

Attack. This is where the coach have to make a big call with Kai Havertz, Timo Werner, Mason Mount, Callum Hudson-Odoi, Hakim Ziyech and Romelu Lukaku all ready to play.
On our own we will settle for the trio of Mason Mount, Kai Havertz and Romelu Lukaku.
Romelu Lukaku to lead the attack?
