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.

      It was on target anyway even if Koscielny didn't touch it, why would it be an OG?

          I agree, but Clark OG last week and no OG this time just showcase the FPL inconsistency.

          Yeah so corrected to an OG Mata assist. At the moment Torres gets an assist coz he won the free kick. It looked like it was drifting wide until Kos diverted it.

      WHAT are you talking about? It was on target from Mata and therefore it's his goal.

    It's a Mata goal
    It's an own goal
    no it's a Mata goal
    no it's an own goal

    let me drop the SCIENCE. It doesn't matter if Kos touched it last or not IF the shot was on target in the first place. In this case it does not count as an own goal. This is not opinion, it's in the rules. Therefore Mata goal torres assist
