Arsenal vs Chelsea Preview and Team News

Arsenal Team News

Arsenal sit atop the Premier League and look increasingly likely to win their first title since 2003-04. They’ve opened up a five-point gap between themselves and Manchester City, their closest challengers. The Gunners‘ greatest strength this season has been their defense – they lead the league in clean sheets with 13. 

Manager Mikel Arteta must be pleased that his wards are undefeated in their last five games, with three victories during that stretch. After their midweek 2-2 draw with Wolverhampton Wanderers, the Gunners came back in stunning fashion to beat Tottenham Hotspur 4-1 on Sunday, posting an xG of 2.07. 

The team have several key players ruled out with injuries, including Ben White, Kai Havertz, Max Dowman, and Mikel Merino.

Arsenal predicted lineup vs Chelsea (4-2-3-1): Raya; Hincapie, Gabriel, Saliba, Timber; Rice, Zubimendi; Trossard, Eze, Madueke; Gyokeres.

Chelsea Team News

Sitting fifth in the table, Chelsea enter this London derby as the challengers. Their sole aim is to make it to the UEFA Champions League next season under manager Liam Rosenior. 

Chelsea have won just two of their last five games, one of which – a 4-0 victory over Hull City – came in the FA Cup. The silver lining, however, is that they’ve conceded just five goals during that stretch. 

In their recent 1-1 draw with Burnley, the Blues‘ defensive performance left room for improvement – they won just 44% and 50% of their ground and aerial duels, respectively. 

Mykhaylo Mudryk and Wesley Fofana have been suspended, whereas the likes of Dario Essugo, Filip Jorgensen, Jamie Gittens, Levi Colwill and Marc Cucurella are ruled out with injuries.

Chelsea predicted lineup vs Arsenal (4-2-3-1): Sanchez; Gusto, Chalobah, Adarabioyo, James; Santos, Caicedo; Neto, Fernandez, Palmer; Pedro.

Arsenal vs Chelsea Prediction

  • Pick: Arsenal to win
  • Odds: -161 (20Bet)
  • Correct score prediction: Arsenal 2-1 Chelsea

We expect Arsenal to win. They are on a roll and, sitting top of the league table, have shown their good form throughout this season. The Gunners‘ record at the Emirates is enviable, with only one loss in 13 home encounters this season. Moreover, they’ve gone unbeaten in 30 of their last 45 meetings with Chelsea. The Blues, meanwhile, have won just six games on the road in this campaign.

Arsenal vs Chelsea Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Arsenal total over 1.5 goals
  • Odds: -154 (20Bet)

We expect Arsenal to score over 1.5 goals against Chelsea. Striker Victor Gyokeres and attacking midfielder Eberechi Eze are in red-hot form, having each netted a brace against Spurs. Gyokeres has 10 goals already this season and is the Gunners’ leading goalscorer. 

Eze ranks second with six strikes into the back of the net. The former displays an impressive xG of 8.3 in the Premier League. Arsenal have also scored over 1.5 goals in four of their last five matches.
