11 players who could miss Arsenal vs Chelsea clash as Blues handed major blow

Arsenal and Chelsea run the risk of having a combined 11 players out of action for Tuesday evening's Carabao Cup clash at the Emirates Stadium.

The Gunners head into the fixture in good stead, securing a 3-2 win over the Blues at Stamford Bridge during the first leg of the semi-finals last month. In that fixture, Ben White, Viktor Gyokeres and Martin Zubimendi cancelled out an Alejandro Garnacho brace to gain a slight advantage going into the all-important second game.

And while both clubs will hope to secure their place in March's final when the dust settles on Tuesday evening's clash, Arsenal and Chelsea may be forced to do battle in north London without a full squad to pick and choose from.
