Chelsea vs Arsenal live stream: How to watch Premier League fixture online and on TV tonight
Chelsea will look to consolidate their position in the Premier League’s top four when they welcome London rivals Arsenal to Stamford Bridge in the Premier League tonight.
Thomas Tuchel’s side beat Manchester City on Saturday to deny their upcoming Champions League final opponents the Premier League title, a result which also saw Chelsea go third in the table.
The Blues face Leicester in the FA Cup final this weekend, however, so Tuchel may have one eye on the Wembley as Chelsea host Mikel Arteta’s side.

What is the team news?
Chelsea lost defender Andreas Christensen to a hamstring injury in the win at Manchester City. The Dane is set to be unavailable against Arsenal tonight but could be back before the end of the Premier League season. Tuchel is still waiting on the return of Matteo Kovacic, with the German confirming that the midfielder is not yet ready to be in the squad for tonight’s match.
Arteta has said the hamstring injury that forced Emile Smith-Rowe off against West Brom on Sunday is “nothing major” but the young midfielder is not expected to be available against Chelsea tonight. David Luiz, Pablo Mari and Granit Xhaka are all injury doubts after missing the win against West Brom.
