Arteta says "it looks like" Bukayo Saka will not be able to join up with England next month, so expectation therefore is he could be out until after the international break.
Rice, Calafiori, Tzolis all trained today.

Unsure yet if Madueke will make it, decision will be made after training tomorrow.

Gameweek 9 Premier League Starting XI Predictions/Probabilities Update, 28th October - A Thread: One Reply Per Team 👇
See my pinned post for the inputs to the model.
Biggest Risers vs Monday's predictions:
🔵 Fofana (Chelsea) — up 56% to 90% · Played 90 minutes at CB at Anfield, and with Lacroix off holding his hamstring there, he and Colwill start in either shape.
🔵 Welbeck (Chelsea) — up 47% to 72% · Led the line in Chelsea's strong side at Anfield, only four changes from GW8.
🔵 Gusto (Chelsea) — up 46% to 58% · Started at LB at Anfield, where Chelsea's strong side switched to a back four - his seat depends on that shape staying.
🔴⚪ Collins (Brentford) — up 35% to 37% · Back from his calf injury with 71 minutes in the cup tie, but that came in a side with eight changes, after two league games unused on the bench.
🔴🔵 Henderson (Crystal Palace) — up 25% to 65% · Sage's first choice when fit, back from injury with a full ninety and a clean sheet in the cup tie at Fulham.
🔴⚫ Mainoo (Man Utd) — up from 0% to 25% · Back in training on Wednesday after a fortnight out; he started the pivot in every game he was fit for.
🔵⚪ C. Andrés (Brighton) — up 22% to 70% · Hürzeler: 'definitely should be both available for the weekend' after a knock on the hip.
🔵⚪ Kadıoğlu (Brighton) — up 22% to 70% · Hürzeler: 'definitely should be both available for the weekend' after a knock on the hip.
🔴⚪ Hickey (Brentford) — up 22% to 36% · Started in midfield in GW8 and was kept on the bench at Sunderland, saved for Forest.
🔴⚫ Tielemans (Man Utd) — up 20% to 82% · Started all five games since GW4, and starts whether Fernandes returns on the left or at ten.
🔴⚪ Lewis-Skelly (Arsenal) — up 20% to 44% · Started at LB against Everton and played 82 minutes at Fleetwood; in if Calafiori misses out.
🔴🔵 Mateta (Crystal Palace) — up 18% to 80% · Rested from the whole cup squad at Fulham, the sign he is being kept for Saturday.
Biggest Fallers vs Monday's predictions:
🔵 Lacroix (Chelsea) — down 81% to 5% · Went down off the ball holding his hamstring at Anfield and was taken off before half-time; Chelsea have yet to assess it.
🔵 Hato (Chelsea) — down 47% to 31% · Left out of the squad at Anfield with no reason given; Gusto played LB in a back four.
🔴⚫ Andrey Santos (Man Utd) — down 27% to 46% · Took Mainoo's place for two games, and Mainoo is back in training.
🔴🔵 Benítez (Crystal Palace) — down 25% to 35% · Kept goal while Henderson was injured; Henderson, Sage's first choice when fit, is back playing.
🔴⚪ Calafiori (Arsenal) — down 24% to 58% · Missed Fleetwood with his hip, and there is real concern he misses Anfield.
🔵⚪ Yalcouyé (Brighton) — down 24% to 18% · Andrés, who started the last three in the pivot, is expected to be fit.
🔴⚪ Janelt (Brentford) — down 20% to 68% · Started the cup tie at Sunderland while Jensen and Hickey were kept on the bench.
🔴⚪ v.d. Berg (Brentford) — down 20% to 55% · Kept his place at Hull with Schuster fit and was saved from the cup tie, but Collins, the captain, came through 71 minutes on his return.
🔵⚪ Costinha (Brighton) — down 19% to 23% · Kadıoğlu, the RB in the last three games, is expected to be fit.
🔴⚪ Madueke (Arsenal) — down 18% to 75% · Missed Fleetwood with an ankle problem (Arteta) and is a doubt for Anfield.
🔵⚪ Bouaddi (Man City) — down 18% to 22% · Started the nine-change cup side against Brighton.
🔴🔵 Strand Larsen (Crystal Palace) — down 18% to 12% · Missed the cup tie at Fulham with his ankle.
Notable New Addition:
🟤🔵 Madjo (Aston Villa) — 3% to start · Jackson leads; started the cup at striker.
"FPL Top 20 Owned Start %": Top 20 highest owned FPL players and why their % to start is what it is this week.
"Underpicked Differentials": No changes since our Monday predictions.
"Overpicked Traps": Calafiori, who missed the Fleetwood cup tie injured, and Cherki, whose rival Foden also started City's cup side, join the card. Schade leaves because his chance of starting rose to 73% after Brentford saved him from their cup side, and Saka is pushed off the six-row card by Calafiori and Cherki.

Best thing about Barry is he’s £5.6m.
You don’t completely kill the spot, but do spend as little money as possible for someone that plays.
Mega nailed too.
Quite a few good forwards this season!
Can a "potential Chelsea ITK account" benching João Pedro indicate when he might play again?
It's a weak signal. They had already bought Penders on Wednesday, had no FTs left, so couldn't sell without a hit.
⚠️ Note: These are exceptionally noisy; usual massive caveats apply.

Full quote on Bobby Thomas:
"Yeah, he's got a small calf issue. So, thankfully, our fears in the beginning when you don't know... you're worried about that lower region of the leg around the Achilles, but it's a small calf problem. So, we're not sure about this weekend." [1/2]

[..] #pusb #skyblues
Stephen Mfuni is on standby if Bobby Thomas misses out due to a 'small calf issue' ...
'He has shown in the moments he's played and around the building that he's a fantastic young player. It's an opportunity, for sure.'
🎙️ Frank Lampard. #pusb #skyblues
Team news...
Bobby Thomas will be a late decision... the calf injury that forced him off last weekend is not as serious as first thought.
Aurele Amenda, Luke Woolfenden and Josh Eccles have been sidelined longer-term... unlikely to return before the break. Haji Wright has stepped up his recovery.

Bobby Thomas is a doubt for GW9 ⚠️
Still a chance he’ll play, looks like he’ll have a late fitness test, but not the news owners wanted!

Bobby Thomas update here… 🗣️
Bobby Thomas has a calf injury but is not as bad as first feared…
He will see over the next couple of days if he will be fit enough for SUN (H) - He is a doubt for Saturday

Junior Kroupi won't start on Saturday, Rose confirms. He says they still need to build up his minutes and they need to get him fit with more and more match time and good training minutes.

Over the season, Arsenal have 3/4 all of fixtures with CS odds over 45%. No other team has a fixture with CS odds over 50% - Arsenal have 6.️
This week, LIV (A)? 28% CS odds, still 6th-best.
In GW10-20? Never outside the Top 4 in any week, top in more than half of them 🛡️
