Arsenal vs Chelsea Preview and Team News

Arsenal Team News

Arsenal have been in the form of their lives. Sitting atop the Premier League, they’ve also won every game they’ve played in the UEFA Champions League. Now, all that is left is for them to wrap up the EFL Cup

Having won the first leg of this semifinal 3-2, the Gunners already have a foot in the final. 

They’ve been undefeated in their last four matches across all competitions, the latest of which was a thumping 4-0 away victory at Leeds United in the league. Arsenal posted an impressive xG of 2.19, taking a whopping 14 shots in total, eight of which were on target and six were big chances. 

Interestingly, 12 of those shots came from inside the box, proving their efficiency in negating opposition defenders. 

The hosts will be without several key players for this clash because of injuries, including Bukayo Saka, Max Dowman, and Mikel Merino.

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

Chelsea Team News

Chelsea have won their last five games, underlining their strong form. However, they’ve kept just two clean sheets across that span, which means that their defenders haven’t always been in alignment with each other. 

The Blues were defeated 2-3 in the first leg. However, even away from home, the team remain dangerous, particularly on the counterattack. That threat was evident in their recent come-from-behind 3-2 win over West Ham United, which saw a winner from Enzo Fernandez in stoppage time.

Chelsea recorded an impressive 89% passing accuracy in that match, a statistic that could help them in building play from the back against Arsenal as well. Right-back Malo Gusto, with a passing accuracy of 94%, was constantly sent up the flanks to lend support. 

Mykhaylo Mudryk is still ruled out due to a suspension. Dario Essugo, Levi Colwill, Romeo Lavia, and Tosin Adarabioyo have all been sidelined with injuries.

Chelsea predicted lineup vs Arsenal (4-2-3-1): Sanchez; Hato, Badiashile, Chalobah, Gusto; Caicedo, Fernandez; Garnacho, Palmer, Neto; Delap.

Arsenal vs Chelsea Prediction

  • Pick: Arsenal to win or draw
  • Odds: -556 (20Bet)
  • Correct score prediction: Arsenal 3-2 Chelsea

We expect Arsenal to either win or draw this London derby. They hold a clear advantage after winning the first leg. Moreover, they’ve avoided defeat in 29 of their last 44 meetings with Chelsea. 

At home, the Gunners have been close to unbeatable against the Blues, winning or drawing 18 of their last 25 matches. The Premier League leaders have form going their way too, having gone undefeated in four of their last five outings.

Arsenal vs Chelsea Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Total over 2.5 goals
  • Odds: -143 (20Bet)

We expect at least three goals to be scored here. Arsenal should take the initiative, as they did in their first-leg victory. Moreover, with Victor Gyokeres, Gabriel Martinelli, and Leandro Trossard (38 combined goal contributions) in prime form, they should be able to breach the Blues’ defense easily. 

Meanwhile, Chelsea’s Alejandro Garnacho, the tournament’s second-highest scorer with four strikes, is likely to be given a free hand in attacking midfield and inside the box. Three of the last four meetings between these teams at this venue have produced more than 2.5 goals.
