Arsenal are finishing preparations for their fifth preseason match of the summer v Chelsea on Sunday at The Emirates.
Obviously, with this being a “friendly” derby, the stakes and importance of the match have been raised a few notches, so, I expect Mikel Arteta to field his best available starting XI for this game.
With that said, here’s my predicted Arsenal starting XI v Chelsea…
[4-3-2-1]
Aubameyang
Smith Rowe, Pepe
Elneny, Partey, Lokonga
Tierney, Mari, Chambers, Bellerin
Leno
Cheers!
