Arsenal team news: Arsene Wenger to make decision regarding Alexis Sanchez

Arsenal face a difficult fixture against an in-form Chelsea in the Premier League this weekend.

Arsene Wenger’s side come into the game following back-to-back wins. The Gunners defeated Bournemouth 3-0 before registering a 3-1 victory over FC Koln in the Europa league.

The north London-based club are already under pressure from fans following a disappointing transfer window and an inconsistent start to the season.

Arsenal team news:

Wenger rested seven first-team players during the Gunners win over FC Koln on Thursday night. Chile international Alexis Sanchez made his first start of the season and played the full 90 minutes against the Bundesliga side.

Sanchez has been included in the squad for today’s clash but is unlikely to start.

Star playmaker Mesut Ozil was rested during the week but is expected to return to Wenger’s starting lineup.

Francis Coquelin will miss the game with a hamstring injury while Calum Chambers has also been ruled out.
