Chelsea head to high-flying Aston Villa next and also play Tottenham, West Ham and Brighton in the coming weeks. Pochettino will at least be hoping to welcome <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/why-cole-palmer-isnt-playing-against-arsenal-return-chelsea/blt67489d2d64e68e99" target="_blank">Palmer back next time out after the youngster</a> missed the trip to Arsenal due to illness.
