The two London sides will go head-to-head in a bid to claim the first silverware of the season.
Pedro has handed the Blues a fitness boost after returning to training – albeit with a protective mask – while Hector Bellerin scored a stunner in training ahead of Sunday’s game.
But the clash of the Premier League titans at Wembley also brings back memories of another famous tie between the two.
Back in 2005 the two sides met with Chelsea having smashed league records to snatch the Premier League title away from Arsene Wenger’s 2003/04 Invincibles.
The Gunners meanwhile had finished runners up and still claimed the FA Cup after beating Manchester United on penalties.
The stage was set for a classic and it did not disappoint as Didier Drogba once again took centre stage.
The Ivorian had already given Chelsea the lead with a terrific chest and volley in the first half.
But his best was yet to come as he latched onto a flick on by Eidur Gudjohnsen.
He takes a touch before shrugging off a defender and rounding Jens Lehmann.
But his final touch is heavy and he has to sprawl to get the ball as a defender rushes back.
He manages to get there first and fires his shot while half-turning and falling into the back of the net past the keeper, who had recovered to his feet.
Jose Mourinho’s side would go on to win the match 2-1, before going on to retain the Premier League.
