Arsenal get ready to take on the reigning Premier League champions Chelsea in season’s curtain raiser – FA Community Shield this Sunday. Ahead of the game, we take a look at the strongest possible line-ups for both the Premier League giants.
Both teams have major absentees from the opening of the new season as Alexis Sanchez and Diego Costa could miss this epic clash.
Sanchez having played the Copa America tournament is still nursing himself to fitness while Diego Costa will be battling his long-term hamstring injury to be fit in time for the Community Shield clash against Arsenal.
Predicted Chelsea vs Arsenal Community Shield line-ups:
This game will be special for Petr Cech as he gets to ready to make his formal debut for the Gunners against a club whom he served for almost 11 years. Jose Mourinho has already started the war of words ahead of the game claiming or rather suggesting Arsene Wenger to focus on skills of his team to gain a victory over the Blues.
This match will not be like the friendlies they have been involved during the pre-season, it will be feisty and we will have the firsthand experience when these two juggernauts collide inside the Wembley Stadium this Sunday.
