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.

    @Ajay. If Nelson scores, or keeps a CS, then you can win.

    1 or 2 pts from RVP, and almost every single guy here will take a hit (or wc).

      It would be a great way to cash in on the price rises, and change in player fortunes....If you feel this week was a fluke, don't wc. But both Suarez, and Jelavic are focal points and will do well. Tevez will be suspect to rotation, so I'd prefer Aguero. Lots of good midfielders (Fellaini>Piennar though)....Keep Berba though ,get him on Saturday, and just bench him for 1 week.

      Jumbled thoughts, I'm sorry.

        Maybe you've just sorted everything out, Tevez out looks worth doing, though I was looking to get Yaya out for Caz, that can wait for a week you reckon?

      Yep. No chance that all the big guns will mis-fire again. And you could probably give RVP more than six minutes before you write him off this week.

        Well I wasn't really writing him off, missed a sentence in between rather. Just a way of showing the front 8 I have, even if I do WC, RVP would be in it, without a shadow of a doubt.
