Chelsea vs Arsenal live stream and how to watch Premier League game online, lineups

The Chelsea vs Arsenal live stream sees Chelsea host league-leaders Arsenal in a London derby — and you can watch it from anywhere with a VPN.

A London derby is always an exciting game, and this weekend should be no different. Chelsea will be looking to bounce back from their shocking loss away to Brighton last week. That was Chelsea's first Premier League loss of the Graham Potter era, and it could not have gone worse for the former Seagulls manager. Chelsea conceded two own goals en route to a 4-1 thrashing, ruining what was expected to be a triumphant homecoming. Chelsea will be looking to ensure they get revenge by stealing points from their league-leading rivals this Sunday.

Meanwhile, Arsenal have their own revenge storyline to focus on. There is no love lost between the two sides and that's been compounded by the arrival of Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang in West London. The former Gunners striker left The Emirates mid-season last year after a falling out with manager Mikel Arteta. But after a brief spell in Barcelona, he's returned to the Premier League as a member of the Blues. Arsenal will be motivated to make sure that he is unable to find any rhythm in this game, not that they need extra motivation against Chelsea.

So will the home side make a statement and erase the nightmare that was last weekend? Or will the league-leading Gunners storm into Stamford Bridge and claim three points? There's nothing like a rivalry game so the Chelsea vs Arsenal live stream should be pretty special.

Here's how they line up: 

Chelsea: Mendy, Cucurella, Silva, Chalobah, Azpilicueta, Loftus-Cheek, Jorginho, Mount, Havertz, Aubameyang, Sterling.

Arsenal: Ramsdale, Zinchenko, Gabriel, Saliba, White, Partey, Odegaard, Xhaka, Saka, Jesus, Martinelli.
