Epl: Maresca Drops Cole Palmer For Arsenal Vs Chelsea Clash

Chelsea manager, Enzo Maresca, has left Cole Palmer out of his squad for Sundays Premier League trip to Arsenal.

The 22-year-old is said to be nursing a tight hamstring.

A win at the Emirates against their London rivals would see the Blues cement fourth place in the Premier League table and boost their hopes of qualifying for the Champions League next season.

But Maresca has decided not to risk his talisman for the game.

Palmer played in the second half of the Blues 1-0 win at home to FC Copenhagen in the Conference League round-of-16 on Thursday.
