The top flight clash between Chelsea and Arsenal will take place on Saturday 21 October, 2023 at Stamford Bridge at 17:30.

According to arsenal.com:

The trio pulled out of their international squads a fortnight ago due to various little issues, with Bukayo and Leandro struggling with hamstrings, while William has a problem with his big toe.

Reflecting on his selection dilemmas, he said: “We obviously haven’t had a lot of players. It’s the first training session we’re going to do today and we will know more after the session.

“I do have an idea [of his starting XI] but I have to see them all together today and how everybody is because we have a lot of people travelling around the world and with a lot of minutes in the legs. I want to judge what is the best for tomorrow, not only in terms of what I want to do tactically but also how the energy is, how the mood is, how the spirit is. In order to that, I will have a better clue after the session today.”
