Confirmed Lineups: Chelsea vs Arsenal – Havertz and Aubameyang start

Aubameyang starts against his old club Arsenal with Chelsea boss Graham Potter fielding a strong XI to take on the North London giants in Sunday’s showdown at the Bridge.

The ex-Gunners talisman would be hoping to rediscover his goalscoring touch with Chelsea on the search for the three points in what should be a tough outing on home turf against their city rivals.

No Koulibaly in the starting XI

Kalidou Koulibaly has to be content with a place on the bench as it is the skipper Cesar Azpilicueta who makes the starting team sheet alongside Thiago Silva and Trevoh Chalobah.

Ben Chilwell was injured last time out and with the English wing-back sidelined until the New Year, Marc Cucurella provides cover in the left wing-back role with Ruben Loftus-Cheek on the opposite flank.

Mount starts in the midfield

Mason Mount partners up with Jorginho in the centre of the park for the home side Chelsea with the latter getting the nod to start ahead of Mateo Kovacic.

In the attacking third of the pitch, Kai Havertz joins Raheem Sterling in the wide positions while Aubameyang should be seen operating in the central striking role.
