Chelsea vs Arsenal: The Blues possible line up and formation as they face their first real test
One of the biggest and toughest game in the English Premier League will take place during the weekend as Chelsea will host Arsenal at Stamford Bridge in their first home game.
The truth about this game is that it will be the Blues first major test, although they won their first away game against Huddersfield but the win had been expected so it is nothing new.
But facing Arsenal will be the first true test of their new football style under Sarri Maurizio.
The Blues didn’t really perform well in their game against Manchester City in the community shield, therefore, they have to put in more effort to be able to dislodge Arsenal.
Sarri Maurizio is fond of the 4 – 3 – 3 football formation and it will be used in their match against Arsenal as the former Napoli boss will want to prove a point.
These are the players that are likely to make it to the Blues first eleven, Chelsea most expensive goalkeeper, Kepa will man the goal post while the duo of Marcos Alonso and Azplicueta will play on the left and right back.
David Luiz and Antonio Rudiger will play at the centre back.
The trio of N’golo Kante, Jorginho and Ross Barkley will play in the midfield while Eden Hazard and Willian will play on the two wings.
Alvaro Morata is likely to take charge as the striker as Sarri is willing to give him another chance.
