Chelsea predicted lineup vs Arsenal - Premier League

Chelsea welcome their London rivals Arsenal to Stamford Bridge in the Premier League on Sunday lunchtime.

No Chelsea player has started every Premier League match this season. The Blues are unique in this regard and come up against an Arsenal team which have eight ever-presents in the starting XI - a division high.

Here's the changeable XI Graham Potter may deploy against familiar visitors.

GK: Edouard Mendy - Injury to Kepa Arrizabalaga is set to provide Mendy with his first Premier League start since Potter took charge.

RB: Cesar Azpilicueta - The Chelsea stalwart has scored more goals against Arsenal (three) than any other club in his senior career.

CB: Trevoh Chalobah - After 33 consecutive starts without defeat for the Blues, Chalobah marked his first loss from the off last weekend with his first Premier League own goal.

CB: Thiago Silva - The former Milan and PSG centre-back is winless in his last six meetings with Arsenal (D2 L4).

LB: Marc Cucurella - Potter's star pupil down on the south coast is enduring a tricky spell at Stamford Bridge, getting hooked within an hour of his last four Premier League starts.

CM: Ruben Loftus-Cheek - An Arsenal shirt was the first football kit ever given to a Thierry Henry-idolising Loftus-Cheek. Shortly after that, the eight-year-old youngster would join Chelsea's academy, presumably without a cannon on his chest.

CM: Jorginho - The only Premier League goal Jorginho has ever scored from inside the six-yard box came against Arsenal in 2019.

AM: Mason Mount - Chelsea's top scorer last season hasn't found the net at Stamford Bridge in 2022.

RW: Christian Pulisic - Within five minutes of the 2020 FA Cup final, Pulisic put Chelsea ahead against Arsenal. The team then led by Frank Lampard (that feels a while ago) lost a lot of their thrust when the American was forced off injured in the second half, ultimately losing the showpiece to a side captained by Chelsea's new number nine.

ST: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang - The former Arsenal skipper left north London under a fog of controversy following a public falling out with Mikel Arteta. With an ominous foreboding, his past manager described Aubameyang as "very dangerous" ahead of the contest.

LW: Raheem Sterling - Across his last five Premier League starts against Arsenal, Sterling has scored four times.
