Chelsea v Arsenal March 21 2008
Arsenal will again be without Czech midfielder Tomas Rosicky (hamstring) for the trip to Chelsea on Sunday.
Midfielder Abou Diaby (calf) also remains sidelined, although new England call-up Theo Walcott is pressing for a place in the starting XI.
Johan Djourou (groin) continued building his match fitness with the reserves in midweek and Eduardo is out for the remainder of the campaign with a broken leg.
Petr Cech's fitness is the only major problem facing Chelsea coach Avram Grant.
Cech's ankle injury forced him to miss their 4-4 draw with Tottenham on Wednesday night. If he fails to pass a fitness test, Carlo Cudicini will continue to deputise.
Grant could also recall Nicolas Anelka along with Michael Ballack and Mikel John Obi for the vital game against the Gunners.
Squads:
Chelsea: Cech, Cudicini, Hilario, Ferreira, Belletti, Carvalho, Alex, Ben-Haim, Terry, A Cole, Bridge, Ballack, Lampard, Essien, Obi, Lampard, Shevchenko, Pizarro, Sidwell, Wright-Phillips, Malouda, Drogba, Anelka, Kalou, Makelele.
Arsenal: Almunia, Sagna, Toure, Gallas, Clichy, Eboue, Fabregas, Flamini, Hleb, van Persie, Adebayor, Lehmann, Walcott, Song, J Hoyte, Senderos, Gilberto, Denilson, Bendtner
