Arsenal vs Chelsea Match Live Lineups, Start Date and Time. It’s a London derby between Arsenal and Chelsea, but it’s not actually in London this time. Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida will see the red half of London clash with the blue as the Florida Cup ignites and some of the best teams compete for this intangible pre-season trophy. Still, Chelsea hold the lead among the rest as they sit top of the pile after two games played, but Arsenal are not far behind. Both teams have been strengthened in the respective areas needed by Thomas Tuchel and Mikel Arteta and look set for Sunday night’s game.

There is no chance of anyone other than Gabriel Jesus being our player in this game. He won’t be the only ex-Manchester City player on the pitch with Chelsea having their much-anticipated debutant, but Jesus is certainly much more in his prime. The Brazilian has left the shadows of former strikers in the blue half of Manchester and looks set to make his mark in London with his goalscoring sprees. Arsenal fans will be delighted to see William Saliba on the pitch. Lauded as the best defender in Ligue 1 last season, Saliba returns from his loan spell to Arteta, who clearly does not prefer him. But things could change as Saliba is finally starting to play for the Gunners.

Chelsea FC news

In this match, we finally got to see Chelsea’s best XI for the 2022-23 season. With Kalida Koulibaly in the back three, Connor Gallagher in central areas and Raheem Sterling on the right wing, this is a Chelsea side that reckons it can challenge for all the top trophies in Europe. The current world champions are also weighing up a potential move for Sevilla’s Jules Kounde, a move that could put Chelsea’s top three in the business by a mile. The Blues, under new ownership by a consortium led by Todd Boehly, are looking to sign players smartly for the future and have managed to make two huge signings so far.
