Hello and welcome to live coverage of the Premier League meeting between Chelsea and Arsenal at Stamford Bridge!
Chelsea are looking to tighten their grip on a place in the top four as they head into their final three games of the season and a win today would lift back above Leicester City into third. They're unbeaten in their last seven in all competitions (W5 D2), winning the previous three on the bounce. As for Arsenal, they've won just two of their last six in all competitions, but are in good form on the road in the league, going unbeaten in their last five away from home (W3 D2).
CHELSEA STARTING XI (3-4-2-1-): Kepa Arrizabalaga; Cesar Azpilicueta, Thiago Silva, Kurt Zouma; Reece James, Billy Gilmour, Jorginho, Ben Chilwell; Mason Mount, Christian Pulisic; Kai Havertz.
CHELSEA SUBS: Marcos Alonso, Edouard Mendy, Faustino Anjorin, Olivier Giroud, Callum Hudson-Odoi, Timo Werner, Valentino Livramento, Emerson, Hakim Ziyech.
ARSENAL STARTING XI (4-2-3-1): Bernd Leno; Rob Holding, Gabriel Magalhaes, Pablo Mari, Kieran Tierney; Thomas Partey, Mohamed Elneny; Bukayo Saka, Martin Odegaard, Emile Smith Rowe; Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
ARSENAL SUBS: Calum Chambers, Mat Ryan, Dani Ceballos, Willian, Alexandre Lacazette, Hector Bellerin, Cedric Soares, Gabriel Martinelli, Nicolas Pepe.
The teams are out on the pitch now, with kick-off just moments away.
Chelsea reacted well to going behind, but Tuchel will still want to see a big improvement when they come out after the break, especially in the final third. Arsenal were on the back foot for the majority of the first half, but they've looked good defensively so far but Arteta will know they'll be in for a challenging second half.
That win means that Chelsea stay in fourth place, six points clear of West Ham below them. Tuchel will be hoping they can quickly put this behind them though as their attention turns to the FA Cup final against Leicester on Saturday. Arsenal leapfrog Everton into eighth and they have a week to wait until their next game against Crystal Palace.
