Arsenal vs. Chelsea live score, updates: Latest
It is one of the biggest days in the London football calendar, Arsenal hosting Chelsea in front of a (near) capacity crowd at the Emirates Stadium. The Gunners won each of their two league meetings with their rivals from west London last season and repeating that feat would go some way to easing the mounting frustration among supporters towards Mikel Arteta.Still defeating the European champions will be a tough task indeed for a side who lost their opening game 2-0 to newly promoted Brentford. Chelsea arrive at Stamford Bridge in a rich vein of form having won the European Super Cup, beat Crystal Palace in their season opener and secured Romelu Lukaku in a $135 million deal. The club record signing is expected to make his debut in north London this afternoon.
We’ll have team news very shortly but Aaron Ramsdale has arrived with his new squad today after completing his £24m move from Sheffield United just in time to be registered. The same can’t be said for Martin Odegaard, who will have to wait for his second Arsenal debut until the trip to Manchester City at the earliest.
Arsenal XI: Leno; Cedric, Holding, Mari, Tierney; Sambi, Xhaka; Saka, Smith Rowe, Pepe; Martinelli
Subs: Ramsdale, Maitland-Niles, Tavares, Chambers, Kolasinac, Elneny, Nelson, Balogun, Aubameyang
Chelsea XI: Mendy; Christensen, Rudiger, Azpilicueta; James, Jorginho, Kovacic, Alonso; Mount, Havertz, Lukaku
Subs: Kepa, Silva, Chalobah, Zouma, Chilwell, Kante, Hudson-Odoi, Ziyech, Werner
