Chelsea will face Arsenal London in the Boxing Day Premier League clash on Saturday, and these encounters can often bring excitement and unpredictability.
Arsenal are really struggling this season and going through a very tough streak but they can never be underestimated regardless and it will be a tough match for Frank Lampard’s team.

However, they will like to play them with their own high confidence after beating West Ham 3-0 earlier this week, and Lampard will be looking for all three points.
His selection is difficult to define, with players returning from injury, some needing a break before a busy schedule and others claiming claims to start.
I think Mateo Kovacic will be back from the beginning, and we could see Timo Werner resting in favor of Kai Havertz or Callum Hudson-Odoi, depending on how fit the latter is.
Planned xl –
(4-3-3): Mendy, Azpilicueta, Zouma, Silva, Emerson. Kante, Monte, Kovacic. Pulisic, Havertz, Abraham.
