Enzo Maresca's Chelsea FC can cut the lead of Mikel Arteta's Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table to three points with a win, while a defeat may help the Gunners create a nine-point gap.
Cole Palmer, Levi Colwill, Romeo Lavia and Dario Essugo are unavailable for Chelsea due to injuries, while Barca will be missing Gavi and Pedri because of their medical issues.
