Rosenior appears to have a cunning plan to negate Arsenal’s presence at set pieces, by keeping three players high, thereby ensuring a trio of Gunners have to marshall their presence. A brave move.

18: SAVE! Hincapie curls the ball towards the far corner as Sanchez leaps to his right to palms the ball to safety
A raucous atmosphere but still 0-0 after 20 minutes...
Reece James was missing from the Chelsea squad, but talented Brazil teenage attacker Estevao was included among the substitutes following compassionate leave. Cole Palmer was only on the bench, with Liam Delap starting up front with Joao Pedro and Enzo Fernandez in support. It looks like a possible change of shape from head coach Liam Rosenior, who has picked five defenders in Malo Gusto, Wesley Fofana, Trevoh Chalobah, Jorrel Hato and Marc Cucurella
Arsenal made three changes from the resounding 4-0 win at Leeds United on Saturday as they went into this crucial League Cup capital clash semi-final second leg 3-2 ahead. Bukayo Saka who limped out of the warm-up at Elland Road missed out, as did club captain Martin Odegaard, while Kepa Arrizabalaga retained his place as the cup goalkeeper in place of David Raya.
Subs: Sharman-Lowe, Acheampong, Badiashile, Holland, Palmer, Estevao, Garnacho, Guiu, Mheuka.
Chelsea: Sanchez, Gusto, Fofana, Chalobah, Hato, Cucurella, Caicedo, Santos, Fernandez, Delap, Pedro.
Subs: Raya, Mosquera, White, Jesus, Norgaard, Trossard, Havertz, Calafiori, Lewis-Skelly.
Arsenal: Kepa, Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Hincapie, Zubimendi, Rice, Eze, Madueke, Gyokeres, Martinelli
