We’re treated to no fewer than eight Premier League games today, as an unpredictable Gameweek six gets underway. The Dugout Discussion opens for the first game of the day – a tasty encounter at the Emirates between title hopefuls Chelsea and Arsenal. Both sides will be looking to inflict a first league defeat on the opposition, and these are the line-ups charged with that task…

Arsenal XI: Mannone, Jenkinson, Kosielny, Vermaelen , Gibbs, Diaby, Arteta, Cazorla, Ramsey, Podolski, Gervinho.

Chelsea XI: Cech, Ivanovic, Cole, Luiz, Terry, Ramires, Mikel, Mata, Oscar, Hazard, Torres.

The visitors make one change from the side that saw off Stoke last week, as skipper John Terry replaces Gary Cahill. Arsenal also make the single change, which influential defender Thomas Vermaelen coming in for Per Mertesacker.

Once proceedings at the Emirates has concluded, we turn our attention to the flurry of six 3pm kick-offs, before settling down for an evening at Old Trafford, where Manchester United welcome the visit of Tottenham Hotspur.

Follow all of today’s action as it unfolds in our Dugout discussion chatroom, which can be accessed right here.

      So my team:

      Al-Habsi
      Rangel, Rafael, Baines, Demel, Hughes
      Cazorla, Toure, Ben Arfa, Bale, Sterling
      Torres, Ba, Fletcher

      Any thoughts on what to change?

      Currently swapping in Torres and Bale, for RVP and Peinaar

      Good move?

    I really don't want RVP getting injured, I like the fact that all my rivals have him, and I don't.

        I except him to score a brace or two within the next 5/6 gw's....So I'm ready for that. But your whole team looks so much better without RVP than with RVP.

        Come on now, do people honestly sit there and think starting spurs players away at United is USUALLY going to pay off? Not I. Ooooooooops.
