Arsenal vs Chelsea Prediction: The Blues Prepare Aubameyang

– Chelsea coach Frank Lampard will carefully select the starting lineup for his team to face Arsenal at the Emirates, Wednesday (2/5/2023) early morning. Striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will probably be starter in this emotional battle.

Frank Lampard hopes the game against Arsenal can break his deadlock in winning at Chelsea. Since returning to the club as caretaker coach, the Englishman has endured a difficult period, losing all five of his games in charge.

Lampard hinted at some interesting team picks ahead of the game against Arsenal. One name that has emerged is the former Arsenal captain, Pierre-Emerick Aubemayang, who may get the chance to lead the line.

“When I came in it was clear that Aubameyang had not played much this season. But what was also clear was the level of players we had. I didn’t have time to see the players in training in large areas, as we have games every few days. I don’t have time to see his abilities, other than through feelings,” said Lampard in the pre-match press conference session.

“Maybe Auba’s past with Arsenal comes into my head because we all think that a player going back to his old club will provide a certain motivation. I haven’t really explored that with Auba myself so I would choose that position based on how we train and what is the team structure like?

Lampard also confirmed that Kai Havertz is ready to play. But Lampard emphasized that the decision on who will start and play will be decided in the final selection.

“Kai Havertz will play; he has trained this week. We’ll see who starts. I have Auba, I have Kai, I have David Fofana. I won’t spoil the team, but they are all fit and ready, ” he said.
