Because of Manchester City's extremely late victory, Arsenal must win if the club is to regain the lead in the Premier League. Sunday afternoon's opponent may be ranked seventh, but Chelsea have a lot more quality in the squad than their ranking suggests. Last season, 'The Blues' finished above Arsenal and on Wednesday they secured first place in Group E of the Champions League. Mikel Arteta and his side face a tough match at Stamford Bridge.
Arsenal's players and fans will not have to travel long to Chelsea. Only ten kilometers separate the two clubs' stadiums, so the players will not arrive exactly tired. No doubt Graham Potter will regret that. This will likely be the biggest test yet for his squad, since he took over from Thomas Tuchel in early September. Since his appointment, Chelsea have only lost once, last week to Potter's old club Brighton.
Chelsea barely concede goals since Potter's tenure, and they are facing the club that has conceded the fewest goals in the Premier League this season. Moreover, where Chelsea have struggled to score, Arsenal have looked unleashed this season. The Gunners are the only team to have scored at least once in every single one of their Premier League games this season. A goal for Arsenal yields 1.30 times your bet.
What is also not in the home team's favour are the head-to-head statistics. Since the foundation of the Premier League, back in 1992, no team has beaten Chelsea more often than Arsenal. Out of 60 head-to-head games, The Gunners won 23, with the Blues laying claim to the 3 points 20 times and the remaining 17 games ending in a draw. That both teams are evenly matched is also shown by the bookmakers' odds. Both Chelsea and Arsenal have an odd of 2.75 in the event of a win, while a draw can earn you 3.40 times your stake.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored almost 100 times in the Arsenal shirt, 68 of them in the Premier League. In 2019 he became top scorer of the Premier League, but as of the 2022/23 season he plays ten kilometers away at Chelsea. A goal against his old club will earn you 3.30 times your stake. At Arsenal, Gabriel Jesus is the man to provide goals, although the striker, who came over from Manchester City, has failed to find the net in the Premier League for more than a month now. If he manages to end that drought, it will earn you 3.20 times your money.
