Chelsea Vs. Arsenal Live, 2011 Premier League: Lineups

It's always a nice, big spectacle when Chelsea play Arsenal, and there's always a lot to play for, but both teams have very specific concerns in this match. Chelsea will be looking to prove their title credentials with a win after last week's loss to Queens Park Rangers, while Arsenal are out to prove that they're not the sixth wheel in the Sky Six and on the outside looking into fourth place. Arsenal are looking closer to healthy than they have in a long time, while Jose Bosingwa starts for Chelsea after serving his red card suspension in mid-week. Here are the lineups.

Chelsea Lineup (4-3-3): Cech; Cole, Terry, Ivanovic, Bosingwa; Mikel, Ramires, Lampard; Mata, Sturridge, Torres

Arsenal Lineup (4-3-3): Szczesny; Andre Santos, Koscielny, Mertesacker, Djourou; Song, Ramsey, Arteta; Gervinho, Van Persie, Walcott
