Arsenal vs. Chelsea: Sep 6, 2026

Caicedo (undisclosed) will have his status checked Saturday after the last team training session before Sunday's clash against Arsenal, according to coach Xabi Alonso, per Football London. "We will check tomorrow. Tomorrow is the last session for the squad on Sunday."

Palestra (undisclosed) feels much better in his recovery from injury, the player said to the media, according to Niccolo Righi of Tuttomercatoweb. "Since the first day, Mister Xabi Alonso and my teammates made me feel great, a lot has changed but I like everything here. I'm doing well, it's still a few days away, but I feel much better."

Saliba (back) continues to make progress in his recovery, though there remains no clear timetable for his return, according to coach Mikel Arteta. "The progression has been really positive in the last few weeks, but we need to wait and see how that one reacts when we start to put some load into it."

Timber (groin) was spotted training with the team this week, though it remains unclear whether he'll be back for the clash against Chelsea, according to coach Mikel Arteta. "He's in really good condition at the moment, he's been a few weeks on the pitch and has been training with us, so he's in a really good place. We will decide again tomorrow after training."
