Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka is available for selection having served a 3-game ban following a straight red against Man City in Gameweek 3.

The Swiss international has featured in 11 North London derbies against Tottenham during his time at Arsenal and has been cautioned no fewer than 6 times inc. receiving a yellow in each of last season’s fixtures.

The Blues are unbeaten in their opening 4 fixtures this season (W3 D1), scoring 9 times and conceding just once from the penalty spot against Liverpool in gameweek 3.

Tuchel’s men were narrow 1-0 winners in the Champions League during the week whilst Spurs were held to a 2-2 draw by Rennes in the lesser coveted Europa Conference League on Thursday. 

Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott was just 2-years old when Jerzy Dudek was denying the likes of Pirlo & Shevchenko from the penalty spot.

​The talented teen looks set for a spell on the sidelines after sustaining a nasty injury at the weekend.

Mohamed Salah notched his 100th Premier League goal over the weekend as Jurgen Klopp’s men eased to a 3-0 win over Leeds.

​The Egyptian winger has an equally as impressive strike-rate in  Champions League, scoring 28 times in 24 appearances.

Salah was on target 6 times in last season’s competition when the Reds crashed out in the quarter-finals to Real Madrid.

James was hardly prolific during his 2-year spell in Manchester but the 23-year old has bundles of pace and could cause Andy Robertson problems as the Scot continues to get up to speed following an injury hit start to the campaign.

​Robertson played 86mins for the Reds prior to the International break and featured in all 3 World Cup Qualifiers for Scotland to varying degrees of success.

The Hungarians were one of the surprise packages of EURO 2020 despite failing to make it out of Group F, securing shock draws with both France & Germany.

Marco Rossi’s men currently sit 37th in the FIFA rankings, 33 places below Gareth Southgate’s Three Lions who occupy 4th spot- and the Magyars are unbeaten in World Cup qualifying so far.

With Danny Ings, Marcus Rashford, Ollie Watkins & Dominic Calvert-Lewin all ruled out, Patrick Bamford has earned his first call up to the England squad.

​The Leeds striker scored 17-times for the Yorkshire club last season and the 27-year old was off the mark for this campaign when scoring a late equaliser against Burnley last weekend.

Chelsea, meanwhile, kick-off their campaign with a 3-0 home win over Crystal Palace before winning 2-0 at the Emirates last Sunday.

Romelu Lukaku marked his return to the Premier League with a debut goal against the Gunners and the Belgian forward has 5 goals in his 17 appearances v. Liverpool during his spells at West Brom, Everton & Manchester United.​

The Blues lifted the European Super Cup and carried that momentum forward when kicking off their 2021-22 Premier League season with a routine 3-0 win against Crystal Palace.

The Gunners did the league double over Chelsea last season, winning 3-1 at home last December before leaving Stamford Bridge with a 1-0 victory in May.

Club record signing Romelu Lukaku is eligible to make his return for the West London club having re-signed for a reported £97.5million from Inter Milan last week.

Lukaku was sold by Chelsea in 2014 and the Belgian forward notched 30 goals in all competitions last season en route to helping the Nerazzurri to the Serie A title. 

Kane, who despite being heavily linked to a move away from North-London, remains a Tottenham Hotspur player and the England captain heads the market for this season's Golden Boot at 10/3 with bet365.

The England captain has scored 163 times since breaking into the Spurs team in 2014/15 with his lowest return being 17 in 2018/19 & he's sure to be there or thereabouts come next May.  

Ollie Watkins bagged 25 goals for Brentford in 2019/20 before notching 14 times for Villa in his debut season in the top flight.

Ivan Toney was brought into replace the outgoing Watkins and the 25-year old found the back of the net 31 times for the Bees in the Championship last term.

The Foxes defied the odds to lift the FA Cup back in May when Youri Tielemans wonder-strike proved the difference against Chelsea.

Brendan Rodgers will be hoping his side can produce another upset this weekend.

City completed the record breaking signing of Jack Grealish from Aston Villa on Thursday evening.

​The English midfielder notched 7 times in all competitions for Villa last season and the 25-year old sparkled in a handful of cameo appearances for England at the EUROs during the Summer.

The Cottagers head the betting at 11/2 with bet365. 
​
A sluggish start, just 1-point from their opening 6 games- mixed with too many draws toward the end of the season saw the west London outfit fall out England's top tier last year.

Influential midfielder Alex Mowatt has followed Ismael to the Midlands club and it’s hoped he and Karlan Grant can strike up a rapport together. Grant was on target no fewer than 19-times for Huddersfield in 2019/20. 

The Baggies forward is 12/1 to be the leading marksman in the Championship for 2021-22.

It could be a defining season for 21-year old striker Rhian Brewster.

The England under-21 international signed from Liverpool last October for a reported fee of almost £25 million but failed to find the back of the net in 30 appearances in all competitions last year.

He was on target 11 times for Swansea whilst on loan in 2019-20 and Jokanovic will be optimistic the return to England's second tier could be the key.
