Teams: Chelsea v Arsenal: Ozil ruled out, Sanchez dropped
Arsenal will be desperate to make a statement of intent when we take on Chelsea at Stamford Bridge this afternoon.
Arsene Wenger has surprisingly left Alexis Sanchez on the bench with the out-of-form Alex Iwobi chosen to start in attack.
Mesut Ozil misses out through injury so Danny Welbeck joins Alexandre Lacazette in the side with Petr Cech, Aaron Ramsey and Granit Xhaka also recalled.
Here are the line-ups:
Chelsea
Courtois, Moses, Azpilicueta, Luiz, Cahill, Alonso, Kante, Fabregas, Willian, Pedro, Morata.
Subs: Caballero, Christensen, Rudiger, Zappacosta, Bakayoko, Hazard, Batshuayi
Arsenal
Cech, Bellerin, Koscielny, Mustafi, Monreal, Kolasinac, Xhaka, Ramsey, Iwobi, Welbeck, Lacazette.
Subs: Ospina, Mertesacker, Maitland-Niles, Elneny, Sanchez, Walcott, Giroud
